kadamba Poriyal | mixed veg portal | cabbage thengai curry is a quick south Indian dry side dish recipe in Instant pot. Almond flour is used instead of coconut for this curry. This Vegan dry mixed vegetable side goes well with rice. Kadhamba curry can be made within 10 minutes and is perfect for busy mornings.
My almond flour madness continues, but this time I did not make a sweet. Ever since I started buying Almond flour from Costco, I have been using almond flour a lot in cooking. Initially, I used it because I had a big packet in my pantry, but over a period of time I started using it regularly and my family didn’t feel much taste difference.
One day when I made kadamba Poriyal I took out the coconut from the freezer, but I was in a hurry to pack hubby’s lunch, so I used little almond flour and we all liked it. If used in a small quantity Almond flour is one great replacement for coconut in poriyal, Kootu, Sambar, kurma, etc.
After a few trials and errors, this is my version of Watery and non-watery vegetable combo kadamba Poriyal in an Instant pot. I have used 1 tsp of coconut oil for tempering. If you are ready to skip it this curry can be made oil-free. I have used natural pressure release technique. There won’t be any burning of veggies. Sometimes if the lid is opened after a long time there might be some extra water, but if cooked in sauté mode, it will be evaporated in less than a minute.
Kadamba (mixed veg) poriyal is made with a combination of carrot, beans, cabbage and peas. Usually towards the end of the week when my fridge has limited veggies I will go for this. Sometime I will also prepare when I load my fridge with veggies.
In our home rice is a must for lunch. Thinking about rice accompaniment and side is one of big confusion. I usually make 6 category of dry vegetable side dish.
