Meena's Taste Mantra

Karamani Mulakushyam | Cow Gram Gravy

Karamani Mulakushyam is my favourite! This along with Thaiyr Sadam | Curd Rice and Maangai Thokku | Mango Pickle is a mouthwatering combination. Amma loves this with Vadu Mangai | Pickle Super duper delicious!

Ingredients:

200 gms Karamani Payaru | Cow Gram

1 tsp Coconut Oil

2 Sukhi Lal Mirchi | Dried Red Chilli, broken into 2 piece

2 tsp Rice Flour

1 sprig Fresh Kadhi Patta | Curry Leaves

To taste Salt

Method:

Wash the Karamani Payuru and pressure cook them along with the dried red chilli pieces, for 7 whistles.
Gently mash the cooked Karamani Payaru and keep aside. It should be just broken not a paste!
In a small bowl, add the rice flour and make a smooth paste by adding little water.
In a vessel, add the mashed Karamani Payaru, Rice flour paste and salt. Add sufficient water to make the gravy to a pouring consistency one.
Once the gravy comes to a boil, switch off the gas.
Add the coconut oil and curry leaves.
Serve hot with Rice | Curd Rice and pickle
