Pavakkai Varuval/ Bittergourd Fry
Pavakkai / Bittergourd is a rarely loved vegetable by most people but this is my favourite veggie.My hubby likes Pavakkai Puli kulambu the most than this fry.As you all know bittergourd is loaded with lots of precious nutrients and vitamins and especially so good for diabetics.This veggie is available all round the year and I try to include often in our menu.This is a simple fry recipe but takes some time and patience to get it right.This goes well with sambar rice and curd rice .Lets see the preparation…

Mutton Varuval Curry / Mutton Fry curry
Hi Friends,
This is a very popular and a traditional dish from Indian cuisine . I got this authentic recipe of course from my mom who is a great cook to me.My mom prepares this curry in a kadai (i.e,not using pressure cooker) that was so great.The mutton we get in my moms place is so soft and cooks soon.But without cooker I can’t make this as the mutton I am getting here in my place is so hard and will take hours when I cook in a kadai.I love to toss some hot rice in the masala leftover in the pan.That tastes awesome. This hot dish goes well with steamed rice or rotis or with any type of Indian flatbreads or with pulao rice.We loved this so much and try it , definitely you too will love it…

Gramathu Kozhi Kulambu / Village Style Chicken Curry
This is a very aromatic Chicken Kulambu / Curry made with fresh ingredients.Before days people used to make curries with freshly ground ingredients.Now-a-days too in villages some of them use fresh masalas.I still remember whenever we visited my aunts place in my childhood she will make chicken kulambu with freshly grounded masala that too made using hands.(i.e) using ammikkal.
This curry is my family favourite.The ginger garlic paste and the fresh masala added makes this curry so flavourful .No wonder it tastes delicious.We thoroughly enjoyed this curry .Give it a try you too will love it. Lets see the preparation…
