What is karuvadam?
Karuvadagam | Kuzhambu Vadaam is a popular Tamil brahmin recipe from south India | Tamil Nadu. sun-dried fryums prepared with urad dal and black-eyed peas come in handy for preparing kuzhambu or kootu
Why karuvadam vatha kuzhambu?
when you are running out of vegetables kuzhambu vadam comes in handy. Also, you are trying to add protein in everyday meals this is one great way to enjoy puli kuzhambu with a good amount of protein.
Can I skip roasting karuvadam?
No always roast the Karu vadam till they turn brown and crisp.
HOW MUCH PULI SHOULD I USE FOR THE KUZHAMBU RECIPE?
The amount of tamarind depends on the sourness of the tamarind so adjust the quantity according to the tamarind paste you use. Today I have used homemade tamarind paste instead you can soak lemon size tamarind and prepare tamarind extract and use. If you are using store-bought tamarind paste, adjust the quantity according to its soreness. Pulikaichal, puli aval, instant puli sadam are some of my tamarind based dishes
SHELF LIFE OF VATHA KUZHAMBU
puli based Kuzhambu variety generally stays good for at least 3 days. If you are planning to keep it at room temperature for a long time make it thick like thokku consistency and add extra oil.
CAN I USE Chilli POWDER?
yes, you can use chilli powder instead of sambar powder, Sambar powder gives an aromatic flavor to the Kuzhambu so I would recommend that for vatha kulambu
WHAT SHOULD BE THE CONSISTENCY OF PULI KUZHAMBU?
In our home, we prefer slightly thick Vatha kuzhambu. Adjust the water according to the consistency you desire.
