Aiyoh, Roshan, I wish I could fly down to your place with
all the vatrals and chinna vengayams.
Come to Malaysia, we will load your luggage with
all these things.
Try Roshan, saute the onions well in the oil first.
Then do the kulambu.
Thanks, Kugan98

Kugan, thanks for all your nice recipes.
Motchai curry really looks tempting.
Can we get this motchai In Malaysia?

Kugan you have posted vathal kulambu, kaara kulambu.
What about puli kulambu?
I love puli kulambu with brinjals and fresh mangoes, (slurp)

One more thing my mom says that there is something called kaara podi.
Any idea Kugan? Thanks, Rose75
