• I’ve added a casual chat room to CookingBites as a place for off-topic banter, light conversation, and short-lived chit-chat that doesn’t belong in forum threads. The chat room is informal and lightly-to-not moderated, with messages being temporary, so it’s ideal for friendly back-and-forth that would otherwise derail discussions. Site rules still apply, but there’s no reporting system or expectation of post-by-post moderation - if something becomes uncomfortable, the right response is to step away. If a topic has substance or lasting value, it still belongs in the forums; everything else can head to chat.

These look absolutely delicious. With the exception of the curry leaves, I can make this recipe right away. Do you think leaving out the curry leaves will make a huge difference? Can I just add a touch of another herb instead? If so which herb would be the closest one to use?
 
These look like awesome appetizers for a get together. They are bite sized and they sounds delicious. I will have to keep these in mind for the next time I am invited to an outing with friends. :)
