Milagu Kulambhu - Version 2



I have already posted a version of milagu kulambhu with no onion and garlic but today's version is slightly different.This recipe I noted down couple of weeks back in a T.V cooking show by Mrs.Revathy Shanmugam.This recipe used poppy seeds,fennel seeds and cashews to make the spice paste which was quiet new for me.
As her recipe is always a hit and not complicated,so without any second thought I tried this for our weekend lunch.The original recipe calls for a tbs of  poppy seeds,as I ran out it used only half of it.The kulambhu came out so delicious and creamy,I paired up with beans poriyal and pappads.Lts move on to the recipe.................................................

  • The garlic cloves I used is slightly fat cloves,if it it a smaller variety use around 15-17 cloves.
  • There may be a chance of getting a slight bitter taste while boiling but after the flavors gets incorporated the bitter taste will go off.
