Senaikilangu/Elephant Yam Fry -Vegan Thursday


Senaikilangu fry is one my family's favorite and I make it very often and pair up with a simple rasam or sambar.Here in U.S fresh yam is rarely available and it will be very expensive so I make it with the frozen one.This yam makes a itchy feel in the tongue so to reduce that one soak the chopped yam in tamarind water or add little bit of tamarind paste and fry.Now on to the recipe.................



Ingredients

IngredientQuantity
Yam/Senaikilangu(chopped)300gms
Red chilly powder2tsp

Turmeric powder/manjal podi1/4tsp
Garlic/poondu(crushed)2-3cloves
Fennel seeds/sombu1/2tsp
Curryleaves/karivepillai2sprigs
Gram flour/kadalamaavu 2tsp
Salt1tsp
Oil11/2tbs




Method

Pound the garlic and fennel seeds in a mortar and set it aside.
Take the chopped yam in a bowl,to this add the chilly powder,turmeric powder,salt and tamarind paste.Mix it well.


Heat the pan with a tbs of oil,once it becomes hot add the pound garlic and fennel then add the curry leaves.Add the yam to this and fry it for a minute.


Sprinkle some water and cook it covered in a medium flame till the vegetable is cooked.Now add 2 tsp of oil and gram flour,keep it in low flame fry it till the vegetable becomes crisp.


Serve it with rice,sambar,rasam or curd.



Enjoy............................................................ 

  • Fry it in a slow to medium flame to get crispy.

Vegetable Biriyani - Pressure Cooker Method

Coming to day 3 of Blogging Marathon#62 under the theme quick dishes I am sharing a one pot meal.This biriyani can be made in 30 minutes if the veggies are chopped and kept or even frozen veggies can also be used. As I have the habit of chopping veggies for the next day cooking this takes only 20-25 minutes of cooking.Also I use the boiling hot water to cook the rice faster.When the rice is cooking in the pressure cooker you can make either a simple raita or an egg omelette to pair up with this biriyani.                                                                                                                                  ...
