Kothamalli Kulambhu




For this week of CCC,when I was looking at my cook book collections this kulambhu caught my attention.I noted down this recipe from a magazine during my last India trip.
I tried this kulambhu for the first time,it came out so delicious and finger licking.The recipe is more like the karevepillai kulambhu prepared in our households but with freshly ground masala.Simple papad and fryum goes very well with this kulambhu,but I paired up with chow chow kootu and egg omlette.Lets move on to the recipe..............................

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.                                                                                                                                  ...
