AVIYAL!!!

Aviyal my ever time favorite dish. It is a mixed veggies combination. Lets learn how aviyal is prepared!

Ingredients :

Varieties of Vegetables

Potato : 2
Elephant foot yam : 1 cup
Drumstick : 1
Beans : 6
Carrot : 1
Raw Plantain : 1
Snake guard : 1 cup
Green chilly : 2
Curry leaves : Few

Grinding

Coconut : 1 cup (grated)
Garlic : 2 pods
Turmeric : 1/2 tsp
Jeerakam (Cumin Seeds) : 1/2 tsp

Method:

Wash and peel all the vegetables and cut everything in 1 and 1/2 inch length. Cook the vegetables with salt. Either cook in open pan or can cook in pressure cooker. If you are pressure cooking the vegetables, keep it for 1 Whistle, so that vegetables never mash. TIP ( Use less water ) otherwise u have to cook much to get the thickness for the gravy, meantime the veggies will get over cooked.

Simultaneously grind coconut, garlic, turmeric and jeerakam coarsely using less water. Don't grind the same as fine paste.

When the veggies got cooked, add this coconut paste to the veggies pan and cook for 15 minutes. Put salt as much u required.

Before removing the flame pour season it with coconut oil and curry leaves.

Hope you enjoyed this recipe :)
