Keerai Muttai Poriyal is one of my favorites, it takes no time to cook. All leafy vegetables are source of high nutrients with high health benefits. When I see them in store I buy them without having second thought. They play a major role in cardiovascular health.
Curry Leaves / Karuvepillai
Mushroom Pepper Fry Masala / Kalan Milagu Varuval
Mushroom Pepper Fry is one of the easiest recipes to cook mushroom. It goes every well with chapathi.
Muttaikose Kulambu / Cabbage Gravy / ( Muttakose )
This is how exactly we prepare the Chicken Kulambu in Kongunadu. We don’t normally eat Non-Veg during the month of Puratasi. So we make substitues for chicken during that period. This recipe is a substitute of Chicken Curry Kulambu. Cabbage can also be replaced with Mushroom or Potato. Home made Curry Masala is the plus here, it gives the extra flavor and also a unique taste.
Poondu Kuzhambu / Garlic in Tamarind Gravy
Garlic has lot of health benefits and have major part in digestions. Anyone would love this gravy recipe as doesn’t give the raw taste of garlic. One of the Kongunadu dishes.
Kadalai Maavu Bonda / Gram Flour Bonda / Chickpea Fritters
This is also known as chickpea flour bonds from kongunadu / south india. This is a best evening snack. My mom used to make this when raining. We used to make this for small functions at our places or for any local festivals.
If you are so health conscious squeeze the excess oil by keeping the fritter in the middle of the tissue and press it in the palm. Instead of green chili, red chili powder can also be used.
Paruppu Rasam / Toor Dhal Rasam
Rasam is a kind of tamarind dhal soup we take along with white rice for lunch meal. It’s almost prepared every day and mostly prepared in south Indian homes. Rasam rice can be accompanied with pappad or some vegetable fry.
