பூண்டு புளிக்குழம்பு / Garlic Tamarind Curry Without Tomato

Poondu kulambu / Garlic curry is an authentic South Indian curry . I have a great love towards this recipe . Atleast weekly once this curry will be on our menu . This is so easy to prepare and a good lunch box item . And I am sure everyone is aware of the medicinal properties of garlic .The best pair for this tamarind based curry are papads . And also any mild stir fry like Cabbage poriyal / fry , Snake gourd Kootu or  Carrot beans stir fry will be a good combo to this spicy tangy curry .  Earlier I have posted the version  using tomatoes and without coconut . Check the related posts for the detailed recipes . Lets see the preparation of this mouth watering curry…

Pavakkai Puli Kulambu/ Bitterguord curry

 
Pavakkai is one of my hubby's favourite vegetable preferably as puli kulambu. Besides it is loaded with lots of precious nutrients So i try to include it as much as possible.Most of them avoid this wonderful veggie because of its bitterness .There are many tricks to reduce the bitterness by soaking it in saltwater or in tamarind extract or in curd and also washing it several times in lots of water. I didd'nt soaked it but somehow the bitterness is reduced in this curry because of frying it before adding it to the gravy. It tastes really good even my little one liked it...
 
Have a try you too will love...

Nattu Kozhi Kulambu / Country Chicken Gravy

This ia an authentic South Indian Gramathu/village gravy.  The recipes prepared with Country chicken are excellent in taste.  Whether it is kulambu/gravy or varuval/fry it tastes heavenly.  This was our sunday lunch and it was a big hit.  This Gravy is prapared with sesame oil and it gives a wonderful flavour to this dish.  In my place I can't find it so I am using  British Country chicken / Cornish hen.  But the taste of the  real country style chicken is extraordinary.Now to the recipe...
