Amma’s Pulikulambu with Brinjal, Drumstick & Onions

I have been waiting to share this recipe ever since i posted my mum’s urundai kulambu recipe. I have been getting a lots of request from my readers to share this recipe. So here i am with the post. I make pulikulambu a little differently, i sometimes add ground spices or sometime roast and grind my spices. But this is how my mum makes her pulikulambu. This is a little spicy gravy, so a little gravy mixed with rice and had with papad is highly satisfying.

She always keeps recipes simple and easy. This is her basic pulikulambu recipe. From this recipe she turns it to different pulikulambu eachtime. Sometime she add cooked soyabeans, cooked double beans, different veggies, only garlic, only shallots,etc..She made this for me on a special day during my stay in my mum’s place, along with this she made urundai kulambu, drumstick leaves thoran, papad, beans poriyal and rice. It was a amazing meal. Can’t wait to have more of it. I hope you will love this and let me know how it turned out for you, if you try it some day.
