Aval (Poha) with Palm Jaggery - Karuppati Samba Aval - Healthy and Easy Tiffin

Aval (Poha) with Palm Jaggery - Karuppati Samba Aval - Healthy and Easy Tiffin - Dishes with two or three ingredients

Karupatti Samba Aval - prepared with red poha, grated coconut and palm jaggery. Just 3 ingredients are required to prepare this healthy breakfast. I prepared this recipe for 30 varieties easy and healthy dishes with few ingredients for the Aval Vikatan magazine.

For this dish you can use either thick aval or thin aval. One of the common mistake that why dishes made with aval gets soggy is due to over soaking the aval which turns mushy. If you are using thick aval, soak the aval in warm water for 15 minutes and then drain the water completely. If you are using thin aval, just rinse the aval and drain the water completely. Make sure that you don't soak it for more the 15 minutes. To prepare this dish, you have to grate the palm jaggery and prepare a thick syrup. Then the syrup is strained to remove the impurities and add it to the soaked aval. Finally, a handful of fresh grated coconuts is added. If you want to prepare even more ahead of time, you can prepare the palm jaggery syrup and store it in the refrigerator. Next day, you can easily add it to the soaked aval and enjoy a healthy breakfast.

Collection of Poriyal & Thoran - South Indian Vegetable Side Dishes for Lunch

Every day we prepare two varieties of vegetable side dishes for our lunch. Among those two varieties there must be a poriyal dish and the other one is kootu, aviyal or varuval. Varieties of poriyal dishes are countless with our seasonal vegetables. As I said in my poriyal or thuvaram dishes, we add the ground coconut mixture prepared with coconut, small onions, garlic cloves and red chilly or green chilly. This unique coconut paste is often used in our poriyal or thuvaram dishes. Some prefer to add grated coconut or desiccated coconut powder for poriyal dishes. I actually don't like poriyal dishes made without any flavours. For me, poriyal must have a mix of flavours with perfect textures. We usually precook the vegetables in a vessel (except for keerai poriyal) and then we saute it with the tempering ingredients and finished with our coconut mixture. If you find it difficult to precook the vegetables, you can prepare as you like. But actually pre cooking the ...
