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..............................

Cauliflower Masala/Gobi Masala - No tomato Version

Coming to day 2 recipe for the blogging marathon#62,themed under no tomato gravy is a rich and creamy cauliflower aka gobi masala. As my family loves cauliflower,so it appears in my kitchen frequently in some form.I tried this cauliflower curry without tomato and used yogurt and cashews paste.The result was such an awesome and creamy curry. The chilly powder I used was bit spicy so the curry was in the spicier side so squeezed some lemon juice in the end.So adjust the spice level according to your family preference.Lets move on to the recipe.........                                                                                                                     ...
