I am Suguna Vinodh. They call me Kannamma at my home. I spent most of my childhood and college years in a small humble town in Coimbatore called Pappanaicken Palayam. My dad taught me how to cook. He had a job that involved lot of traveling. So whenever he was home, he would cook something exotic now and then. He would sit down on the floor with his cutting board and an old rustic iron knife and start chopping away. I would sit next to him and watch him in awe as to how nicely and precisely one can cut onions. I first started sauteing things for him in the kitchen. I loved to cook. I loved to eat. That’s how it all started.
After graduating, I worked in the banking industry for almost a decade. I took a break after my son was born and I never wanted to return to working a 9-6 job again. We lived for a good time in the USA and that is when I fell in love with baking. I wanted to bake for a living. I apprenticed at a lovely bakery in San Diego for some time. Its hard work, its fun and it smells so good throughout the day.
We moved back to India in 2014. After a couple of years in Bangalore, we moved to Hong Kong in 2016. After an year in Hong Kong, we have relocated to Bangalore.
I currently live with my husband Vinodh and son Vedant in Bangalore. I love to cook with fresh and seasonal ingredients. I am an ardent fan of Julia child and Jacques Pepin. I started this blog to record all our fantastic food adventures. The pleasures of the table are one of the most divine and highest ranked of them all. I fell in love with Julia child watching her shows in PBS. Picked up baking seriously and I am very passionate about all things baked.
“There are only four great arts: music, painting, sculpture, and ornamental pastry- architecture being perhaps the least banal derivative of the latter.”

Hope you like the recipes you find here. I will be thrilled to hear from you. Let me know if you like the recipes.
HAPPY COOKING!
Hi Ms.Suguna Vinod, thanks for hosting this portal & more importantly bringing the tastes of the Kongu region & their recipes. Reminds me of most things I had while growing up & this is my first stop whenever I feel like tasting something from those times.
I have been referring to your site for last couple years – lookup & get started with the prep; but today felt like sharing a comment thanking you for what you do.
Thanks for keeping this updated & truly this is a treasure trove!!!!
Thanks
Thank you!
I am a big fan of yours
My son recently purchased an expensive knife ( Made in), my grandmother also gave him her knives……was wondering about the sharpening???
He asked in forums, most recommended that he should do it himself on a wedgestone.
Would you pls give some advice??
Yes thats correct. Whetstone is the best.
Namaskaram Mrs Vinodh
Hope you and family keeping well and safe.
I am following your post for last 7 years on/off whenever I want to try and cook something different cuisine, dishes are exotic and directions for cooking is spot on.
Much Appreciated your dedication and passion, keep up your good work.
Looking forward to more new receipes and tips !
Thanks :=)
Thank you so much.
Thank you for sharing the recipes, I grew up in Coimbatore, Pollachi and surroundings. All your recipes are nostalgia for me. I ardently follow your step by step instructions and everything on your recipes. These days I google for the food item and add Kanamma cooks in the search bar so that I make sure I find something in yours before searching other places. I always find what I look for though (nativity and stick to basics I guess). I even look for the items that I already cook because definitely your recipe makes it tastier and more authentic. I am happy that I bumped in to your site.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Means a lot to me.
Hi Suguna, thanks so much for your post you really demystified chapati flour for me. I have the opposite problem. I live in europe and my chapatis are too dry because of the flour. Instead to going to an Indian shop which is not in the vicinity I thought i would try to mix a mixture which would work. I knew that the problem was the flour and thought spelt was the answer. You article just cleared that up for me. Its Emmer flour. Very interesting. I’m also on the diabetic spectrum so this is very helpful. Im not just a foodie but am very interested about the science behind it. So a big Thank you.
Thank you so much.
Hi! Just want to say that I just stumbled across your website and thoroughly appreciate your recipes. I’m an Indian-American living in the US, and I sorely miss your style of cooking. It’s hard to find South Indian recipes like yours for inspiration, and thank you for publishing your work. I look forward to making several of your dishes!
Thank you so much
After heard from my Friend, i started looking at your website and hit every dish one by one..
i love cooking but frankly speaking since my childwood i never went inside kitchen when my mom cooking but i love tasting different dishes, after a´my school life mostly i stayed outside, so it is started, Bachelor life in Europe made more passion towards cooking, i dont watch cooking videos rather only check ingredients and process for cooking. i believe the right ingredients with right process always gives a same and good result.
after marriage still have fun time weekly or any special day.
Thank you
Prabu
Thank you!
Dear Kannamma Madam,
I found chapathi recipe on your website. But I couldn’t find poori recipe. Kindly send me link for the same.
Thanks and Regards,
Jayaprakash
Hello Suguna
Thanks for sharing these fantastic recipes. And beautifully presented as well . I am particular fan of your Kongunad recipes… Authentic is a word that is bandied about quite often nowadays… but your recipes are authentic as they can get. Thanks again.
Thank You!
I love all your kongunadu recipes , what makes your blog authentic is you just don’t repeat the same basic recipes that others do, rather you put up some rare and forgotten recipes which you had gathered from your friends and family and also mention about them ( the source of recipe) . Great work. So when ever I cook a dish from your blog I blindly trust it
Thank You 🙂
Hello,
I am so glad I found your blog. Love your work. My Nepali kitchen has all kinds of flavors from your kitchen. Appreciate you.
Thank you!
Hi Suguna,
I just love your blog, one of the few I ardently follow. My all time favorites are thalapkattu biriyani, seeraga samba biriyani and karnataka style chicken curry. I love cooking too and can understand the passion with which you keep up with blogging. Thanks so much for enabling so many of us dish out wonderful recipees for our near and dear ones. Best wishes!
Thank you!
Suguna – thanks for your amazing blog, we have discovered so many recipes to make, when we hit a mental block on what to cook. My wife and myself are huge fans of your blog and it’s a go to site every weekend for us 😊. All we can say is ..Keep it coming 😊😊👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you!
Hey!!! Hi dear Suguna….. Today morn found you on Instagram… Just had a peep into your Website… It looks so classy,professional and feel at home….
I read through and had a glance at the incredibly umpteen number of recipes you’ve made and presented on this site…. They are all adorable…. Well I too am an English blogger.. trying to teach a bit of daily English to people… womeenglish.blogspot.com is my blog ….. Plz save sometime to visit my blog….I wonder how much of effort and time would have gone behind your passionate work….. The quality of work shows the time u have invested…. Take my words……Definitely your work would reach many more soon…. And I loved the way it read in your ABOUT ME session …… about your Father and the way you looked up to your father when He skillfully did His cooking while at home….. The imagination of the scene brings me Happy tears…. it could be only felt by loving daughters….. Take care dear…. Plz do keep in touch….. JANE… Tamil Nadu,India
Thank you

Hi Mam,
Nice Recipes, kindly send your email id
Hi Suguna,
I have recently embarked upon South Indian cooking and have started with idli and dosa. Earlier I used to either order it or cook with ready made batter. I always found the whole process of making idli quite overwhelming ( having seen the house help using the grinding stone) since childhood and never attempted it. However the lockdown has been a boon in a way that with so much time on hand I attempted it. I was pleasantly surprised at how well my first attempt turned out and am looking forward to following your recipes in the future too. Your writing style is lovely too 😊
Thank you so much.
Hi Suguna, like most I keep searching online, trying to find recipes that match my taste and palate. I have liked so many of yours – be it dosas or peanut coconut chutney (don’t remember all). The recipes are typical yet with a slight tweak and great in the end. Top it all your writing is very conversational with a nice touch of humor. Thanks for posting and Keep them coming!
Thank you so much. Keep visiting us.
Hello Suguna,
Belated wishes for New year and Pongal!!
It’s nice to read about you on this page.
I must say that I and my grandmom really love watching your show ‘local flavours’ on travelxp Tamizh. It telecasts old episodes. Would love to see you more on cookery shows, regardless of any channel.
So, please let us know if you’re on any cookery shows
Thank you so much. A big hi to grandmom. It means a lot to me.
Hi Suguna,
I’m a big fan of your blog. You have no idea how much you have helped me. I was born and brought up in a vegetarian family and married a hard-core non-vegetarian. I didn’t know anything about basic cooking, leave alone non-veg. But I truly fell in love with some recipes and have repeatedly used them and have won a lot of praise (Sorry I never admitted, I used your recipes ;-), will remember to give you credit the next time your dish is praised). My whole family loves your mutton chops recipe. Thank you and keep inspiring us!
Thank you!
Hello Madam, I am one of your ardent fans watching your videos on cookery in travelxp tamil channel. Both myself and my wife very much appreciate your presentations of innumerable recipes. Happy to know that you are presently staying in Bangalore, Hope to meet sometime after this corona time. Thank you for all your efforts. God Bless you. Best wishes for a very bright future ahead.
We also like your tamil accent and your pronounciation of tamil words such as puli kozhambu, vachi vachi etc.,( Sorry in lighter vein).
Thanking you.
Thank you so much sir. 🙂
I can’t tell you how brilliant your blog is! Excellent stories, excellent dishes; excellent instructions, excellent photos!!! Well done!!! And thanks!!!

Dear Madam…
Today I stumbled upon your program for the first time in Local Flavours of Travel XP Tamil channel. One thing I noticed is your coolness. No unnecessary Blah Blahs. Crystal clear pronunciation of easily understandable Tamil. Some essential tips wherever required. All these made the program really nice. You earned another bunch of fans who will wait to view your program without fail. Keep it up.
Thank you so much sir.
I’m so happy you’re here and writing – your recipes have always turned out perfectly for me. Thanks for providing us such great information, solid recipes, and helpful photos.
Thanks a lot Kate.
Ba(n)king to Baking – where i take n = no ,perfectly matches the equation.
Hello
I came across your blog after searching for Kongu recipies. This blog has been a triple pleasent surprise. As a fellow kongu with my mom having the same name (Kannamma), I was for a moment shocked whether my mom is secretly blogging without my knowledge and became a financial wizzard. However, after seeing your picture, the very interesting anecdotes and my mom’s speed of typing in whatsapp, I am sure its not her.
I wish you the very best since kongu recipes too have their unique flavour which needs to be recorded. My best wishes.
Thank you!
Hi
I love your blog, and I follow it daily, it’s like I m trying to cook all your recipes one by one.
I just started cooking and year back. And this blog is like magic. It made me a good cook. My husband likes a your recipes
I love the way you have curated the whole blog. Soon expecting a cookbook from you.
Once the book is out there share me the Amazon link. I will be first to buy it.
Lots of love.
Rath
Thank you so much.
WHICH BRAND OF CURRY POWDER YOU WILL RECOMMEND FOR MALAYSIAN MARKET.
I am not sure of what you get in Malaysia.
Loved your soups show today in travelxp Tamil
Thank you!
Could you post some vegan recipes, please?
I see a lot of options for vegetarians and non vegetarians; but not for vegans thou 🥺
Would be excited to see some.
Many of the south Indian vegetarian recipes on the site are naturally vegan too! Do check.
Just found you today and sending warmest regards for your food wisdom and the joy of cooking. Isha Yoga’s Sadhguru refers to Tamil and Southern Indian culture where his ashram is located often. I look forward to inspirations from you!
Where can I find a Mixie in the US? Possible?
Many thanks….
Thank you.
You can checkout any Indian store. They can get it for you.
Hi Kannamma,
This lockdown has brought so much of my attention to your blog just today when I wanted to make sukku coffee for my sinus. Must say that I am deeply impressed by your blogging. Haven’t been to your recipes yet. Will definitely be going there in my next click. But first wanted to appreciate the style of writing about your life and everything is amazing. I wonder how I missed your blog since 2015.
I am from Chennai and a working professional. Love Food. I am passionate about eating vegetarian food with good smell and taste. I would love to cook, but there comes the world of doubt in myself whether I would be able to pull off the whole show of cooking and there I stop to cook.
You have become my inspiration today and will be following your work.
Thank you!
What a lovingly curated blog! It’s the best thing to have happened to me during this lockdown. I was hoping to lift everyone’s spirits up at the dinner table with something different each day and I’m so glad I found a blog that always delivers.
Other things I love about this blog: user-friendliness (search bar, long-form and short-form instructions, video so one can just go recipe or format they are looking for) and the personal touch you add by introducing the people behind the recipes.
Thank you, Suguna, for this labour of love. It really brightens up our day.
Looking forward to many more recipes from you!
I stumbled upon your Chettinad Prawn Masal that looks so good! Plan to try it out tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing more delicious recipes from you.
Btw, I am from Malaysia!
Hi Kannamma ,
I just wanted to tell you that of all the South Indian recipes sites/pages , I absolutely LOVE yours !!
I’m a Malayali and as you know our main festivals are Vishu and Onam – so for all those delicious Sandhya items I refer to your recipes automatically !
Thank you for having meticulously set this blog up – Bless you !
PS: I’m based in Bangalore too,
Hi Suguna,
I am from Coimbatore too, love your recipes. I have tried few of them and have been successful every time. Its a little taste of home , as I am cooking away in my kitchen in Canada. Of course, I am biased to Kongunad Recipes.
I enjoy baking,my favorite baker is Anna Olson, Food network.
Keep posting. Love your work.
Hi Suguna! Congrats on a lovely blog. Your style of writing makes me feel like you are a close friend.
I had been visiting your blog last few years
I wanted to request a recipe. I had this item many years back in a restaurant in Kodaikanal. It was served with rice, in the thali.
It had the fried dried sundakkai – the gravy was white and had many bubbles & flavoured with cinnamon. I thought the gravy was buttermilk (mor) as it was white but it was not sour.
I asked the waited for the name of the dish – he said it was ‘vatra kulambu.’
That was the first time I heard that name.
As I didn’t know the language, I did not ask for more details.
If you know about this please do write to me. I am a senior, cooking is theraeutic for me.
Thank you.
Best regards
Thank you so much for your kind words.
White vatha kuzhambu is new to me.
Will try to get more info in this. Thank you.
Hi Suguna,
Really love all the recipes you post and have tried many – every time they come out to great. I wanted to get in touch with you as we are thinking of shifting to Bangalore. Is there any way I can contact you
Thanks
Darsh
Dear Suguna,
I am writing this note with a specific ” intention” of reaching out to you and express my appreciation and gratitude for the work you are doing.
Am sure you have heard from sooooo many of your fans who follow your website and I am only one of the sooooo many. Still I really want you to know that you are “expressing yourself” through this website and we are all being benefited by the abundant guidance you are showering on us.
Considering that ” food” is one of the most important factors of nourishing the body your website fulfills more than that – it nourishes the Soul also.
Stay Blessed Dear
From : Lakshmi Bhathena
Thank you so much.
Hi,
I have tried your kesari recipe 🙂 and it came out very well. Thank you. My friends also tried it and it came fool proof for all of them. Are you using a steel pan for cooking curries. It looks so in the pictures. I wonder how you manage to saute all the ingredients without getting it burnt. Most of the time during office days we use non stick pans so that food does not get burnt easily. Any suggestions on the type of vessel to be used or cooking method
Thank you
I mostly use stainless steel pans. I do have a non stick pan that i use to make roasts etc..
Hi Kannama
I love the way you explain with minute details and yeah have tried quite a lot from ur blog!! Thanks for the lovely recipes:)
Thank you!
I love your recipes Suguna! I follow them to the T and I love the way you present them with tips to avoid the pitfalls. Keep it up! You’re doing great!
Asiya
Thank you so much!
Hi Suguna/ kannama
Thank you so much for your effort , good no nonsense blog. My husband and me love your recipes.

Hi Ms.Sugana,
Recently I have been told that I have cirrhosis in early stages mainly because of Fatty Liver ,although I am not fat nor I have ever touched alcohol.So I was wondering if you could post recipes that could benefit people with health issues. I love my white rice but looks like I have to sacrifice that . They say millets but I was also told that eating millets on a daily basis is also not good. That is why I have doubts .
Please check,

Hi Suguna,

Thank you!
Lovely page for all kind of recipes.thank you.
Hi Suguna ka,
I have been using your recipes in my cooking for more than a year now. I’m from Coimbatore and I moved to San Diego a year back to pursue my Masters. I could hardly remember the recipe my mom taught me, so I used to google everytime I cook. That’s when I came across your page. Most of your recipes exactly matched my mom’s and grandmom. I never got a chance to read about you until now. I’m glad you created this website and posted so many amazing recipes. Kudos to the great work!
– Swathika
Thank you so much!
Hi Kannamma, I see that you’ve mentioned Wusthof knives and would love to know more. I use traditional Indian knvies which are thin and not that goof for cutting up chicken and need constant re-sharpening. Have you used Indian knives at all? Do you mind writing a blog on your experiences with knives including how to maintain Wusthof knives for example. The reviews I’ve read about Wusthoff knives are all good but I would love to know your perspective based on Indian cooking.
Hi, nice to hear your story. I am (jahir husen, Dharmapuri) working in Dubai. Actually, i am basically a non-veg person, nowadays, I am fed up with non-veg. I start cooking veg items especially Tamil Nadu curries. Google showing plenty of blogs and web sits. I tried plenty, but your blog is very useful and delicious to me. I also start recommending your blogs to my friends. Thanks, a lot. Keep posting all south Indian authentic dishes recipes. Good work for all community.
Thank you so much Sir. I am really glad that you like Kannamma Cooks. Happy Cooking.
Hi, I’m from Chennai, I love to cook especially during weekends. I wanted to cook something which are favourites to my kids. I started with your Kerala stew which was a super hit.

Hi Kannama
I am your fan. My first receipe from your blog was Seeraga Samba rice pulao. I had some seeraga Samba rice and I didnt know what to do because my husband didnt like it for my style biriyani. Your pulao receipe became a favourite. Your vellai mix veg kuruma is another favourite. Now whenever I search for a receipe, if it is there in your blog, I blindly follow it. Keep going. Wonderful blogging
Thank you so much Vaneetha.
Hi,

Oh..Wow..Our Coimbatore’s Pride..!
Many laurels to adorn your headgear,and your kitchen, as well…Dear Madam..!
Thank you sir!
hi Kanamma,
thanku for your amazing recipes but with one regret–
i tend to look at home page every third week coz of lack of time
but by then you have sometimes crossed over to the next page and it seem like
i have lost touch- can you please put an indication mentioning
‘older recipes’and ‘newer recipes’ at the end of the page. i find it difficult to go into
the archives and would personally find the above mentioned
method easier. and still be in touch– thnks
Thanks Maria. Will try to incorporate that soon.
very grateful to you ma’am. Hopefulyl it will be soon enough!! thnks
We want to talk to u mam
You can mail at sugunaindia at gmail dot com
Hi,
I am from Bangalore and currently pursuing Master’s the US. I love to cook, probably started in 7th grade. While I was in Bangalore, my mother was always there to tell a recipe or help me out with measurements and sometimes even repair the dishes I make. So, when I moved to US your website helped me cook amazing meals. Am writing this while I am eating pongal (one of your recipes again :P). Thank you very much for all the work, it has definitely helped me miss home a little less 🙂
This message means a lot to me. Happy cooking!
Hi Suguna,
Long time reader of your blog and have tried almost every recipe with remarkable success. A favor from you – I recall you promoting cast iron cookware manufactured and sold on amazon by a friend of yours (?) in one of the posts. IIRC, it was a Coimbatore based firm. Sort of like a cheaper alternative to Lodge. Can you please share that link again?
Its Rock brand Tawa. Its available in amazon.
Hello, I am very excited to find your website and Facebook page.
I will finally try one of your dishes today, Chettinad Kara kuzhambu.
I know that brinjal is eggplant. Can you tell me what ‘drumstick’ is?
The pictures suggest it may be ‘okra’. Or maybe not.
Thank you!
Drumstick comes from the moringa plant. Its not Okra. You may find it in the freezer aisle in the Indian grocery store abroad.
Mam
I tried your recipe kadalai curry. It came out well. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much. Really glad that you liked the recipe.
Hi,
Last week I tried the Ambur mutton biriyani, it came out so well. Absolutely yummy and definitely a 2nd/3rd serving tempter. I’m about to try the Thahira’s chicken biriyani recipe, can’t wait to taste it. I had a question, just like the ambur biriyani…..in most of your recipes you do not add turmeric powder. Why? A spice that’s a south indian staple and proven to be very healthy…..how come you don’t include it?
Thanks for the recipes.
Shoba
These are family recipes and I have adapted the recipes as they are. I have not come across tamilnadu style biryani with turmeric. It will change the colour and taste.
Dry roasting the lentils is a tip I picked up here. Have not done that so far. Will try it next time. A very simple explanation of the recipe. It was better than reading a numbered step by step recipe. Thanks.
Thank you!
Your page is one of the best I’ve seen on the internet. so simple nd so fun way to show cooking… THX ALOOOOT!!! please keeep doing your woooonderful much appreciated job, with lots of love from Switzerland
Thanks so much. Really glad that you liked the recipes. Happy Cooking.
Hi Sugana,
I stumbled upon your site today.Great site with such great attention to details. I tried your kesari and they are truly flawless.keep up the good work.

Hi Kannamma. Can we sign up to receive to recipes via email?
Sure, you can. Currently we send a monthly digest to our readers.
Hi
Thanks for the great site, beautifully written and presented, with such helpful detail.
I was looking for a southern Indian style mutton curry for my family this evening and yours was great. Everyone enjoyed it.
I’ve bookmarked your page and now I’m looking forward to exploring more of the recipes.
Your mention of Julia Child and her TV show brought back a happy memory for me as well. I must read her books.
Best wishes to you.
Thank you! Really glad that you and your family liked it. Happy cooking!
Mrs. Suguna,
I love your recipes. I made Vanilla cake according to your recipes and it is fabulous.
Thank for all such good recipes..
Cheers! Keep posting new one.
Thank you Vashi!
Despite of being a South Indian, I still google for recipes. Stumbled upon your site and have tried few dishes including the fish cutlet. Lovely and keeps writting.
Thank you so much. Really glad that you liked the recipe. Happy Cooking!
Hi , Thanks for putting in so much effort to explain a recipe with techniques / short cuts etc . They make cooking more enjoyable. Also , do you have plans to publish these as a book ? In my opinion , that would make a great cook book . Good luck with all your future endeavors.
Thank you so much for the kind words Indu.
Hi Suguna,
I am so thrilled about discovering your blog this morning. I have been ardhently searching online for a delicious hotel style Sambar recipe for awhile now. I came across your blog and found a detailed explanation about Annapoorna’s Sambar. I am looking forward to trying this recipe and I am hoping that this recipe will finally nail it. Like you I have been travelling the world and have finally come back home to Chennai to nest and loving every minute of being back. I have been checking out various other recipes on your blog and they all really look so YUM and easy to make. I am really happy that I found your blog. Thank you for sharing your passion with all of us out here. Blessings on your journey of discovery.
Karen
Thank you so much Karen. Really glad that you like the recipes.
I am a fan of your recipes. The thing i like about is the detail and preciseness of the ingredients. Your recipe would have exact amount of salt or water. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much Selva!
Hi Suguna,
I don’t know how to say ? I feel so connected to your blog. I am from Madurai and came to US 12 years back for work. Started cooking only then.. Later after marriage got passionate about cooking for my friends and family. I almost do all kinds of cooking. Sometimes I middle of the day I plan to cook some South Indian dish and I cannot call my mom and disturb. So continued googling or YouTube as I do for other recipes. Once I found your mutton kola recipe and tried it. The taste was just like my mom’s recipe. And your website name kannamma is something close to heart for all South Indians. So when I wanted an exact Tamil recipe for tomato thokku with no garam masala spices just remembered to check your site. OMG I found the exact recipe which we used to take it with chapatis when we travel and use as side dish for white pongal also. And the story you related to the dish was also the same. I felt an instant connection to your blog. Today I am trying your chicken kolumbu recipe and again story about your aunt felt so real to me as I too have same connection with all my aunts.
You site has become an one stop for all South Indian recipes for me.
Thanks a lot.
Thank you so much for writing in. It means a lot to me. Most of our childhood is filled with wonderful memories. I am glad to have shared similar experiences with you. Thank you so much.
Hi Suguna
I came across your blog when looking up Idiappam recipe – I myself being a very passionate cook and enjoying trying out interesting vegetarian dishes and blogging them , I loved the way you have written and I am sure your recipe is fool proof for perfect Idiappam and Stew. Thanks. Definitely a party winner.
Thank you so much.
Hi Suguna, thank you for all the wonderful recipes. You truly put heart and soul into every single recipe. Your anecdotes along with the recipes are even more engaging and relatable. How long does it take for you to compile a single recipe on your blog? i.e. from taking pictures to typing the entire recipe etc.. I am sure an ample amount of time is spent, but curious to know how that works for you. Please keep up the great work, and continue inspiring others. Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you so much Anitha. Oh yes! It takes a long time. It takes about 8-10 hours for a recipe.
Wow! 8 – 10 hours for one recipe. No wonder the output is unmatched. We, as readers reep the benefits of your efforts. Hats off to you!

Suguna you really are special. You are so generous with sharing your recipes down to the minutest detail. And they always turn out good. I am 60 years old, have cooked for the last 40 years, and yet I come back here again and again to learn. THANK YOU, is the best I can say, but it comes from my heart. May you be blessed abundantly.
Thank you so much mam. It really means a lot to me coming from a person like you. Thank you!
Hi Suguna mam,
I am from Erode, currently living in US. I came across your website recently. Being a novice in cooking, I reluctantly followed your recipe for chettinad poondu kulambu and to my surprise, it came out very well and my wife liked it very much that I cooked it again multiple times. Reason for me trying the recipe is that you had given a very detailed steps and description, and that gave me the confidence that I can try this recipe. I’ve a tried many other recipes since then and particularly our kongunad recipes. It reminds me of my mom’s cooking. Thanks for writing all these recipes and bringing back the childhood memories of home cooked food. Now, your website is the first one where I search for new recipe and it is bookmarked in all my devices 🙂
I’m never one to leave a comment but I felt compelled to write to you for all these amazing recipes that I’ve tried.
Looking forward to trying many other recipes from you.
Thank you so much Nirmal Kumar.
Your comments mean a lot to me. Thanks for taking time to write to me.
Happy Cooking!
Suguna—I second Nirmal’s praise. My husband and I spent the summer near Cochin and enjoyed some recipes we never thought we’d encounter again, let alone learn. Your blog is a fantastic resource that brings us a lot of pleasure. Thank you for the effort.
Thank you so much Irene SanPietro. This means a lot to me. I am really happy that you like kannamma cooks. Happy cooking!
Hello Akka
Happy new year.. May all your dreams come true..
Thank you so much. Wish you and your family a very happy new year.
I was in Coimbatore last week and ate at Annaporna. Then i saw this sambhar recipe. Am going to try it out today. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Suguna,
If you walk into my kitchen when something’s cooking, chances are high that it is going to smell like yours! That is because I make so many recipes from your blog. And to your full credit, most of them have been super hits ( I am pretty sure I messed up something in the ones which turned out so-so).
Thank you so much for the awesome recipes. Many of them have become regulars at our home. It takes a special kind of generosity to share recipes in such great detail that anyone can replicate it with some patience and effort. Thank you for that. I also like the background info and pictures that accompany most of your recipes.
Keep rocking and don’t ever shut down the blog :).
Thank you so much!
Hello Suguna Ka
How have you been? Hope all is well.. just wondering why no posts for the past few days
Regards
Priya
Thanks for the concern Priya. I am well. I am on a small break. Will be back in a couple of days.

Hello Suguna Ka
I am searching for authentic Anaa pappu ( avara parupu) recipe.. my hubby’s great grandma who is 90+ now had cooked the lentil couple of years back and it was simply great.. but due to her ageing she is not able to provide enough detail..
Could you please help by posting the anaa pappu recipe if you have..
Hi Priya Govindaraj. Will try to get the recipe. My mil cooks anapappu. will try and get it for you soon.
Hello Suguna Ka
I have been following your blog for the past 6 months and your recipes are cooked over weekend for sure and at least twice a week if my work is not hectic.. My husband loves and enjoys dishes with your recipes. Mutton chukka became a hit among my relatives and all credits to you.. your write up and attention to detail ensures nothing goes wrong.
Now I am almost a brand ambassador for Kannada cooks among my relatives and friends..
Thank you so much Priya Govindaraj. Your words mean a lot to me. Thank you for being so kind. Happy cooking sis.
I love ur cooking always I surf ur blog whenever I have time.specially I wanted to say kongunad recipes is my most favourites how typically our grandmother cooks.thanks
Thank you!
Hai suguna,
Suguna, I will call u akka.. since whenever i read ur blog i creates virtual bonding.. i love all your recepies, tips and tricks. I also tried most of your receipes which came out excellent..
Also, u r a great blogger. Even the magic bonding happens beacuse of ur narration style.. i really love the story for every recpie like how u came to know that recipe, how you enjoyed it, etc., To be very frank i have been all ur stories many times as it is the first time. Some magic in ur hands, God blessed u as a super and multi talent creature akka.
Happy cooking ka..
Thank you so much for your kind words Priya. Your comments means a lot to me. Happy cooking Sister! Hugs!
Hello I am pavithran… I am a prof of aerospace engineering and I live in FL. I am actually from ooty so I know where pakanaiyakapalayam is. I cook as a hobby and when I miss hope food… your blog is amazing. thanks for taking the time
Thank you Pavithran.
Loved your blog. As somebody who cooks very infrequently, I find your recipes easy to follow; the stories attached to each recipe make them very special. Tried your Chettinad Mushroom Biryani recipe this morning. Yum!
Thank you so much!
Many thanks for your recipes, much appreciated. It brings back the joys of Tamizh food that I’ve had in my childhood growing up in Chettinad and later in Coimbatore. It’s sometimes difficult to get all your ingredients in Auckland (where I live) but I make do with what is available and improvise!
Chinna Vengayam is the hardest one to get but unfortunately making do with shallots seems to compromise the taste. Any suggestions?
Best regards
Thank you so much Ravi! Do you get pearl onions?
hi kannamma – Thanks for the Nacha’s Poondu Kozhambu recipe…I loved the story about Nacha and the bonding between the granny and Nacha, I wish you had spent more time with Nacha to inherit more recipes from hardcore authentic cooks like her .. you don’t get such inborn , unsung cooks these days.
First thing to note of such cooks is their patience and attention to the details.
I am a male by the way (incase you are wondering) spent several years in the UK and middle east. Having sent my family back to India for few days, craved for Poondu Kozhambu which my granny used to cook for me. I was pleasantly surprised when i googled to get your touching recipe.
I am going to try today or may be this week and feedback.
I love your blog. I am too worked in the S/W industry for more than a decade, but I have now left it and returned back to my native, Coimbatore. I live in Pollachi now.
I love your recipes. Many of your Kongunadu recipes still show the native traditional style of cooking. I love the way you make your own powder for kollu rasam, kozhi kulambu etc. Present day Coimbatore has fallen into the practise of using packed kulambu powders and rasam powders. I rely on your blog to get back to the native tasty way of grinding spice masalas. Appreciate your efforts.
Thank you so much Iniyaal.
You are amazing and wonderful!! I have never found such perfectly clear, easy to follow South Indian recipes… I only lived in Madurai for 6 months but my mouth begs for chutney and sambar and poriyal and dosai and every good thing. Your site has given me hope that I might be able to make some things on my own. Keep up this excellent work!
Thank You Sarah-Jane. Happy Cooking!
Hi Suguna,
It’s so refreshing to know that you’re from Coimbatore.It is my ancestral native and though I’ve never stayed there long enough, in all ,three to four years..and even that after I got married.i love everything that’s Coimbatore ☺️
Your blog is awesome and well planned! There are a lot of authentic recipes.Love it.
Ps. I just commented in you post about Indian atta vs western atta.
Thank you so much Varsha.
This is one of the sites i frequent to get some tips. I am from Coimbatore, needless to say that your attention to detail is very professional in grade, especially the reasoning for better fermented Idlies. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much Sheshan. You made my day sir.
Hi Suguna,
I came across your site trying to find another way of making fish kulambu and I was totally psyched by your Chettinadu fish kulambu recipe. Have been through your blog several times since and I totally enjoyed going through all these recipes. Kongunadu and Chettiandu are on my top most preference list and it’s really nice to see so many authentic dishes of those regions. I was wondering if one of the dishes my mom used to prepare was a kongunadu recipe. She called it ‘alava puttu’ and it is also prepared with grinded parboiled rice, cooked in open flame and lastly melted jaggery is added. If it indeed is Kongu recipe, could you please post your take on it.
Thanks.
Poonguzhali
Thank you Poonguzhali. I have not heard of alava recipe.
Amazing site!! Great Recipes, I really love it. Its a great site for all who stay away from home and crave for our home food from Tamilnadu…
Thank you so much Richard!

Hi Suguna, Few days back I came by your blog for a recipe and I am totally hooked. Your recipe, clicks and story attached to each recipe is a joy to read to anyone who is passionate about cooking. I am excited to try few of your authentic vegetarian recipes. Thank you for sharing all the recipes 🙂

Hi Kannammma! I got here looking for sambar! though I know how to make, I just wanted to try something different from my way.. as I cook, I get bored of my own cooking! lol! I was so happy to know that we are from the same town but poles apart.. I lived in Sundarapuram thats on the way Echanari Koyil.. Not sure if you are aware of that side.. but whatever, I am so glad someone is posting Kovai specials.. love your blog even though its just a year or so, you have so many recipes from different cuisines. And Shakti Sambar powder is what my mom too packed for me.. so I have one unopened pack here with me in Saudi! Before it gets over, need to find a homemade sambar powder recipe! All the best dear, your doing a great work sharing the lovely recipes.
Thank you so much. I do know echanari! 🙂
