Karuveppalai is one , which is hard to get for the money. We hardly get 1 or 2 stems for the a dollar or so. So I keep thinking how do it do when I have very small in quantity where I need it to season for others too...Just kept thinking, my bulb over my head worked.
I can do it with curry leaves powder. Yes, we get powder in stores in fine quantity and quality. And it also serves to be a "Pathiya" samayal. Whats that? well, it is the different kinds of food you eat after delivery !
Karuveppalai kuzhambu is very good for health and hair too. So just make it for a week and store in the fridge.
Ingredients:
Tamarind - a size of big lemon ( Make a tamarind juice out of it)
Lond red chillies/ Vathamolaga - 3-4
Ginger - small piece
Store bought Curry powder - 4 spns ( I have got one from Grand sweets in chennai)
Mustard - 1 spn
Turmeric - 1/4 spn
Asafoetida/Perungayam - 1/2 spn
Sessame oil and salt
Method:
Just two things to do. One is to grind and other is to cook.
In mixie:
1) Tamarind juice
2) Curry powder
3)Ginger
4)Long Red Chillies or Vathamolaga
Once it is grinded, put sessame oil or nallaennai in kadai and season with mustard and wait till it splutters.Put the turmeric powder and the grinded thing and wait till it gets thick.
Tadaaaaaaa...
Karuveppalai Kuzhambu is ready.
You can add one full stem of curry leaves to it :)
