Hi again Soumya, what a lovely looking meal! I have two questions if you don't mind :)
Dosa kai - is that the same yellow cucumber dosakaya? I've just discovered that vegetable. Also, can jackfruit papad be purchased, or only homemade? Thanks!
Hi Linda,
Yea you have guessed right.Its the same.You can also purchase the jackfruit papad.
In Kannada how do you say "TOP ?'
Hi,
I love Jackfruit papad with morkulambu. Your version of curry looks delicious.Thanks for sharing.
Excellent looking dish Sowmya! I have never seen a Dosakai before,I have to look for now.Thanks for the traditional recipe.

Hey Asha,
Thanks buddy...
We make dosakai curry but totally different from ur's this looks more interesting and delcious. thanks for sharing.
Have heard about "huli" many times from my friends in Puttur. Now I know what is is. My mom makes something similar but without jaggery.
Isn't Dosakai same as 'Mangalooru saute kai'? Did you call it Dosakai back in India too?
I heard the name 'dosakai' in the Indian Stores of US at first.
dosakaya curry looks good!!!i had the jackfruit papad once at my kannada friend's house.looks yummy..

Cool. In andhra we mostly make Dosakai pappu or pickle, I was looking for variety & this turned up.
Also would like recipe for "Lasoon ka katta", when I was in Bangalore I was really fond of this dish my Neighbour used to make, unfortunately I am not able to find a recipe for it.
