Two days back I heard this sad and shock news from Priya's Blog , that Jayasree of Kailas Kitchen was no more and passed away this October 12 because of pneumonia. I never knew Jayasree before but her space Kailas Kitchen was well known to me . One can find all sorts of recipes and includes more authentic and regional recipes also. I shared this sad news with V and we both talked about, the loss to her family and friends. Really they miss Her a lot. No one can compensate this May God give strength to her Family and I pray God to let Her Soul rest in Peace.
I too want to join this tribute and to honor her Memory, I tried Vella Avil from her space. This is so easy to prepare and a quick naivedyam. Check out the link for original and detailed recipe...
