Egg Drop Curry /Udaitha Muttai Kulambhu


Egg Drop curry aka udaitth muttai kulambhu is a popular village style curry,goes very well with idly,dosa and rice.

I usually make either Chettinadu egg curry or egg kurma  and never tried this egg drop curry on my own.As the egg disintegrates in the kulambhu easily if it is not properly made.

After seeing so many videos tried for couple of trials and finally made it almost close to the original.
This egg tastes very good as it gets soaked well in the kulambhu.If you are serving this for idly or dosa then the consistency can be on the thinner side,for rice it needs to be slightly thicker.Let's 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.                                                                                                                                  ...
