Kugan all your sundals look mouthwatering.
I follow your style and do different sundals daily.
My mom told me that sundals are very important for Navarathri.
Will try out your stuffed sweet putu also.
Do you have a recipe for sweet putu without stuffing.

Hi Friends,
Here is the recipe of Muttai kulambu I used to do which i learnt from my mother. Sorry I couldnt post the picture. Pls try this and give me ur comments. If possible post the picture also.I will be very happy!!

Muttai Kulambu:
Ing:
Egg - 4,
Tomatoes - 2,
Shallots - 10,
Oil - 2 tbsp,
Salt - as reqd.,
Coriander leaves (chopped) - little,
Curry leaves - 1 arc.

To Grind:
Shredded Coconut - 3 tbsp,
Dried red chillie - 4( or more as per your taste),
Ginger+Garlic paste - 1 tsp,
Cinnamon - small piece(1"),
Cloves -2 ,
Perunjeeragam - 1/2 tsp,
Turmeric pwdr -1/4 tsp.

Method:
Boil the eggs and remove the shell.
Keep it aside.Cut the Onion and Tomato.
Grind the items given in 'To Grind' to a fine paste.

Heat kadai and pour 2 tbsp of oil.
Put the onion and fry well till onion gets translucent.
Now add tomato and fry till oil floats on top.
Then add ground paste and salt required.
Saute till raw smell goes off and add 1/2 to 1 cup of water.
Let it boil and add the eggs one by one to it.
Remove from stove.
Garnish with curry leaves and coriander leaves.

Note:
Instead of making it like Gravy u can make thokku by reducing the water and also boiled egg can be replaced by breaking the eggs into gravy and let it cook in gravy itself.

Thanks Gulabjamun for your compliments.
I will post the sweet putu soon.
Thanks, Take care, Kugan98

Aarthi, for your post.
