PORICHA KUZHAMBU/KUZHAMBU VARIETIES
Porucha Kuzhambu is an authentic recipe of Tamil cuisine,more specifically tambram menu.It can be made with a variety of vegetables both seperately or mixed.Generally I make this with two or three veggies added together.This I made with chaoyte otherwise called chow chow,brinjal and carrots.You can add a lot of veggies like beans,broad beans,cluster beans.peas,etc.It is very easy to make this recipe and tastes great with rice and dal with dollops of fresh homemede ghee.The coconut ground to a paste adds an extra flavour when mingled with vegetables.Do try and let me know.
