Apple Mor Kuzhambu / Apple Buttermilk Gravy


I know most of you would be definitely surprised to see apple in Mor Kuzhambu but it tasted so good. The kuzhambu tasted bit sweet but the usual flavour and the taste is maintained. Try this and I know for sure you all would love it.



Ingredients :

1. Apple - 1 (Cut in to pieces)
2. ButterMilk - 2 Cups
3. Channa Dhal - 2 tsp
4. Thoor Dhal - 2 tsp
5. Coconut - 2 tsp
6. Green Chilly - 2
7. Red Chilly - 2
8. Ginger - 1 Inch piece
9. Asafoetida - 1 tsp
10. Cumin - 2 tsp
11. Coriander Seeds - 2 tsp
12. Turmeric powder - 1 tsp
13. Mustard - 1 tsp
14. Oil - 5 tsp
15. Salt - Needed qty
16. Curry Leaf - Small qty

Procedure :

1. Add turmeric powder and salt to butter milk. Keep aside.

2. In a pan add, 3 tsp of oil and add asafoetida, thoor dhal, channa dhal, cumin, coriander, red chillies, green chillies, ginger and coconut.

3. Fry well and now transfer to mixie container. Add little water and allow the contents to be soaked. Keep it as such for atleast 30 minutes.

4. Meanwhile, add 1 tsp of oil to the pan and then add apple pieces. Fry for few minutes. Now, add water and cook the apple. Once cooked, keep aside.

5. Now, grind the soaked contents to a fine paste.

6. Mix this paste to the butter milk.

7. Add the cooked apple.

8. Now, in a pan heat oil. Pop mustard and then add curry leaf.

9. Add the buttermilk to the pan and allow it to boil. (Don't over boil. Guess, just few minutes is enough)

10. Serve hot with Rice.
