Kerala pineapple pachadi
Onam or vishu sadya is incomplete without pachadi on a banana leaf. Curd-based pachadi with pineapple sweetness tastes best. You can have it as a side or mix it with rice.
chose the right pineapple
Always use ripe and sweet pineapple for Kerala pachadi. You can use store-bought cut pineapple pieces but avoid canned pineapple.
Can I use coconut milk instead of coconut?
You can use coconut milk for pineapple pulissery but for pachadi i would recommend grinding coconut, as it gives the best texture and taste to the pachadi with pineapple
WHAT KIND OF CURD SHOULD I USE FOR pineapple kichadi?
Always use fresh thick creamy non sour thick curd for pachadi. I have used homemade curd, but you can also use sour cream or non-flavored yogurt for raita. Use thick, well-set curd or yogurt. If you have a watery curd, set aside the whey for buttermilk and separate the thick curd then prepare raita.
CAN I USE SOUR CURD?
Use non-sour curd for kerala style pachadi. If the curd is too sour increase jaggery to balance the thayir pachadi flavor.
SHOULD I WHISK THE CURD?
Yes, it is very important to whisk the curd well. Before adding hot pineapple make sure the curd is lump-free. If whey separates or curd is lumpy it will affect the raita texture
CAN I USE ROOM-TEMPERATURE CURD?
For the best flavor, I would recommend using chill curd for raita. Always store the leftover pachadi in the fridge
CAN I increase GREEN CHILLI?
Yes, adjust the spice according to your taste.
oil for pachadi?
coconut oil gives the best taste to the pachadi but you can use any oil of your choice.
