This thali was prepared a couple of years back when we did a month long blogging marathon on the Indian States and their dishes.
Here is what I prepared for the thali from Karnataka.
On the menu
- Salt
- Lemon pickle
- Majjige menusu / Uppachidha menisinkai – Sun dried chilies fried in oil.
- Kobbari pudi and sesame oil – Lentil and dried coconut spice mix
- Happala – Pappad
- Alugedde Palya – Potato Curry
- Tomato Bhath – Tomato rice
- Steamed rice drizzled with Ghee
- Molake huruli Kaalu Saaru – Sprouted horsegram gravy curry to go with rice
- Bellulli Saaru – Garlic rasam
- Majjege – Butter milk
Though there seems to be a lot of dishes on the menu, But it is quite simple.The pickle, sun dried chilies,lentil spice mix can be made ahead and stored. The main items are just a few and they are like the other regular dishes we prepare everyday.
Hi, what a beautiful Thali. I thought I would let you know that the numbers don’t always refer to the right parts of the pictures. For example #10 (a drink) says it is ghee rice. And is the sprouted gram curry there? I am interested in this recipe. Thank you.
Thanks for pointing it out Ganga. I have changed the numbers. Yes, the sprouted gravy curry is there on the blog. Click on the recipe name [No.9] and it will take to to the recipe.
Looks beautiful. Karnataka was whereI first had thaali, staying at a guest house by the sea in Gokarna…
