Aatu Kudal Kulambu / Goat Intestine Curry

Kudal Kulambu is a traditional recipe of Tamil Nadu. This is one of my mom’s best signature dish and this is prepared right in her kitchen. I really love it so much, but yet some people have a dislike over this yummy curry. If you ask me if its prepared in the correct way then it will not have any smell and that’s the main reason for dislike I guess . And If you taste the curry once sure you are going to love it like I do. This pairs fantastic with plain white rice / Idli / Dosa. And this goat intestine is a good remedy for mouth ulcer. Whenever I got those irritating sores then my mom used to make this Kudal Kulambu.  And after having this curry I really felt better. When I was small whenever my dad buy this goat intestine its a very huge work for my mom to clean those intestines. But now a days its not a big deal. We used to buy this goat intestine from our near by mutton stall. And it is thoroughly cleaned and chopped like usual meat. So we never have to bother about cleaning anymore. Then cleaning under normal water like any other meat is enough. Always make sure the goat intestine is cleaned properly before proceeding to cook. Lets see how to prepare this authentic Kudal Kulambu / Goat Intestine Curry….

Pressure Cooking the Goat Intestine

Grab the needed ingredients ready for Pressure Cooking the Goat Intestine.

Transfer the ingredients to a blender and blend to a fine paste. ( The moisture from the onion is well enough to make a fine paste, if you need water just add a splash )

Wash the goat intestine well with lots of water.

Place the goat intestine in a heavy bottomed vessel. Add enough water with the grounded turmeric masala and give a good mix.

Allow to boil for 5-7 mins. ( Boiling before pressure cooking helps removing the smell.)

Now add enough salt and transfer the intestine to a pressure pan and pressure cook for 3-4 whistles and switch to low flame and cook for another 12-15 mins or until the goat intestine turns soft and done ( Always add enough water while pressure cooking else it may burn).

Preparation Of Masala

Grab the needed ingredients for the masala.

Heat oil in kadai. Add the curry leaves and add the cumin and fennel seeds and wait for spluttering.

Notes :

  • Clean the goat intestine well before cooking.
  • Adjust the spiciness up to your taste.
  • I used small sized garlic pods in this recipe, if you are using big sized garlic then reduce the amount.
