      Could you please send me the recipe for the garam masala that you use

        Hi Liz

        Thanks for dropping in and sorry for the delayed reply.

        Garam masala recipe – now that’s a tough one :). Though I make garam masala at home, I dont use a correct measurement as such.

        Anyways I will give you a rough idea.

        I usually take equal amounts of clove, cardamom, cinnamon & fennel. I also add a few pepper corns and 1 leaf of star anise. Heat a pan and dry roast this spices, till the fennel becomes slightly brown, say 3-4 minutes, but make sure it doesnt get burnt. Let it cool completely. Grind it to a fine powder using the smallest jar of the blender.

        This is how I make it. Anyways, I will try to measure it the next time I make it :)

        Hi Vijaya

        I usually cook tinned tuna but for a lesser time.

    • Aswathy

      Maria, i made this with Tuna and everybody loved it. But one of my husband’s friend was asking whether there is any (veg) substitute for Egg white (for coating). Can you help me?

        Hi Ashwaty

        Thanks for trying out this recipe.

        Yes, there is a substitute for egg white. Make a thin paste with maida (all purpose flour) and water and coat the cutlets in that instead of egg white. May be you can mix 2 tbsp of maida with 2-3 tbsp of water, the batter should be thin, but not watery.

        Hope this helps.

        Take care
        Maria
