    Puli KUZHAMBU

    I love tamarind-based Kuzhambu recipes. When it comes to homemade puli Kuzhambu recipes poondu kuzhambu, Appalam Kuzhambu, enna kathirikai kuzhambu, and Onion Vatha Kuzhambu are some of my favorite kulambu varieties.  I also love Saravana Bhavan hotel style kara Kuzhambu.

    If you are thinking of tasty ways to make coriander leaves-based recipes, this kuzhambu is a great option. Spices along with coriander leaves give an aromatic flavor to the kuzhambu.

    CAN I USE TAMARIND PASTE?

    Yes, you can use homemade tamarind paste. If you are using store-bought tamarind paste, adjust the quantity according to its soreness.

    It stays good for 2 weeks in the fridge. For longer shelf life increase oil and reduce into a thick kuzhambu.

    the color of the kara Kuzhambu depends on various factors like the red Chilli, tamarind, tomatoes, etc.

    WHAT SHOULD BE THE CONSISTENCY OF kothamalli kulambu?

    In our home, we prefer thick kara kuzhambu. Adjust the water according to the consistency you desire.
