Gravies & Curries
Ennai Kathirikkai Kuzhambu / Oil Brinjal Gravy
Ennai Kathirkkai is one of our fav. Brinjal is cooked well in tamarind juice. It tastes awesome with steamed white rice.
Potato Peas Masala / Urulaikilangu Pattani Masala
I like potatoes cooked in any form. This is one of my favorite recipe for sambar and curd rice. Any green peas ( sweet, frozen or hard ) can be used for this or even they can be skipped. Still it tastes good.
Mushroom Gravy / Kalan Kulambu
Mushrooms are an excellent source of potassium, a mineral that helps lower elevated blood pressure and reduces the risk of stroke.One medium portabella mushroom has even more potassium than a banana or a glass of orange juice. One serving of mushrooms also provides about 20 to 40 percent of the daily value of copper, a mineral that has Cardio protective properties.
The latest findings show that white button mushrooms can reduce the risk of breast cancer and prostate cancer.
Mochakottai Kuzhambu / Val beans Gravy
Beans are very high in protein and fiber but low in fat. They have been proven to be a major player in the fight against cancer. Beyond that, they are beneficial to those with diabetes, and help lower cholesterol. Val bean are rarely cooked at my house, this is a chetinadu style val bean gravy.
Dosa Kulambu / Idli Kulambu
Dosa, Idli are a common tiffins in South India homes. At any house these two will be a meal course either for breakfast or dinner. This is a Chettinadu special gravy and different from the usual one prepared. Have fun !!
Appalam Vatha Kulambu / Appla Vatha Kulambu
Vatha Kulambu is a very famous brahmin side dish. This is a chettinadu special vatha kulambu. This is normally prepared with vathal ( sun dried vegetables ). Applam can be replaced with dry broad beans / dry ladies finger etc. Thick tamarind sauce with sun dried vegetables cooked in sesame oil tastes heavenly with steamed white rice.
