Easy Senai Kizhangu Masiyal, How to make elephant yam masiyal

November 3, 2019 by Premalatha Aravindhan 1 Comment

Senai Kizhangu Masiyal, Senai Masiyal

Senai Kizhangu Masiyal is the Tamil name for Elephant foot yam. This Traditional recipe using elephant yam is delicious with rice. Karunai Kizhangu Kara Kuzhambu is the first Senai recipe on Prema’s Culinary🤗. What is Senai Masiyal? Senai Masiyal(this is how we call) is yam and lentil in a tamarind based curry. No coconut used in traditional version but some recipes calls coconut. This recipe don’t have coconut. We can have the Senai masiyal simply with rice and ghee. But I need a sutta appam to try this🤦‍♀️. Very healthy dish, it helps to promote weight loss.

✔Yam helps to reduce cholesterol and act as an anticoagulant.

✔It is safe to consume by the diabetic people and it helps to maintain the hormone imbalance.

✔rich in vitamin c and delays aging.

P.S: all above Infos are googled

Usually, people will complain about the tongue itchiness after consuming that, my advice if you cook Senai kizhangu properly you won’t get any itches. tips to avoid itches,

  1. Adding tamarind extract will reduce the itchiness and also enhance the taste of the curry.
  2. Adding lemon juice finally in the Senai kizhangu masiyal can avoid the tongue itches.
