    You know that kootu takes majority part in south indian cooking. It is made most time of the week along with other dishes. I have quite a few kootu recipe in this blog too. Normally kootu is made when a spicy kulambu takes part in the lunch. Since this curry is mild, it goes well with those type of kulambu. Here you go to the recipe and let me know if you try this..
