Vendakkai Puli Kulambu recipe, TRADITIONAL KUZHAMBU VARIETIES OF TAMILNADU

April 22, 2020 by Premalatha Aravindhan Leave a Comment

Vendakkai puli kulambu recipe (1)

Vendakkai Puli  Kulambu recipe for rice is delicious Kuzhambu Varieties of TamilNadu, Especially in Chennai Makkal Call it as Vendakkai Kara Kuzhambu(வெண்டைக்காய் புளிக்குழம்பு). I already have my mom’s version of Vendakkai puli kuzhambu recipe which is a spicy version and it calls for Coconut. But this is a less spicy and tangy version which doesn’t have coconut and lots of Shallots and onion added. Puli kuzhambu is nothing Tamarind gravy with fried Ladies Finger(வெண்டைக்காய் in Tamil).

Vendakkai Mor Kuzhambu is one another authentic Kulambu variety which is very famous in South India.  I got a shortage of Vegetables now a day. I got only 5-6 ladies’ fingers lying inside the fridge and my vegetable delivery only tomorrow, so I quickly made egg Podimas and Vendakkai puli Kulambu for lunch. Simple Kuzhambu doesn’t require any special ingredients. In a jiffy, we can make.

Vendakkai puli kuzhambu recipe without coconut, yes you have read it right, I didn’t add coconut but still, it looks thick and delicious. The trick is that Firstly, I made the thick extract of Tamarind, and second thing at the finishing stage I let it cook in low to medium flame for around 6-9 mins to make it thick. If we follow that the Kulambu also gets the Flavor of Vendakkai.
