Kathrikkai / Eggplant Puli Kulambu
This is an yummy gravy which is usually served with rice. Appalam goes very well with this gravy. It tastes great when cooked in a mud pot. Please avoid pressure cooker, because it will ruin the taste. Sending this to Healing Foods- Eggplant at Seasoned and Dressed by Kavitha and started by Siri.
Delicious! I this sounds like pulusu, a tamarind based gravy that we make in AP.
That looks n sounds delicious!
