About
Hey,
Welcome to my brand new site “talimpu.com”
People call me RAJI and i have this indian cuisine site called
http://vantakalu.blogspot.com/
So Talimpu.com is the next step taken.
Hope you will love it 
All these Indian recipes are the way i cook not the way they should be. Most of them are inherited from my family. Others from books and blogs.
BTW “talimpu” is a telugu word. Also called tadka/ tiragamata/ tempering.
This is how to do the basic talimpu/tadka–>
heat 1tsp of oil. Add mustard seeds and when they start spluttering add urad dal( skinned split black lentils) and cumin seeds. Variations of this by adding broken red chillies, curry leaves, asafoetida, tamarind, yellow split lentils …
They say talimpu gives all the heavenly taste to the food apart from salt. So talimpu spices are must have.

Warning:
Dont take the amount i give for each ingredient seriously.
Ex: If i say 1 inch tamarind ball……its because my tamarind might be old and so not that sour.
Taste yours and use accordingly. The same goes with chilli powder or other seasonings.
I generally write the recipe for 2-4 people. Calculate the amount to suit your needs.
