RECIPES

Inji Puli/ Puli Inji

Today starts the final week of Blogging  Marathon #34 and I have chosen to blog from a fellow blogger as a special theme. The blogger I am paired with is Lisha of Nandoo’s Kitchen. She has a nice collection of recipes and what interested me the most are the Kerala Sadya recipes. So I selected three recipes from her blog and prepared them. I will be blogging about them for the three days. The first recipe I made is the spicy pickle made for sadya. Pairing ginger and tamarind makes the pickle super tangy and super spicy. It was absolutely delicious with curd rice. This is an important part of the Sadya menu and I have heard a lot about it through fellow bloggers. But this is the first time I am trying this and I just loved it…
