Karunai Kilangu Pulikulambu
I love making Pulikulambu often. We make it with a whole lot of veggies and beans, but this gravy i learned from my mom. She makes it during pongal season, because we used to buy a lot of different veggies, yams and potatoes during that time. What i love in this gravy is the simple bland yam ordinary taste so heavenly when cooked this way.

- Yam Ordinary/Karunai Kilangu - 10 cooked (Check here for method)
- Shallots / Sambar Onion - 10 Peeled
- Tomatoes - 1 large chopped
- Garlic - 10 cloves peeled

This gravy is spicy, sour and a little sweetish at the same time, which really makes it unique. I served it with some drumstick avial and papad and it was heavenly. I hope you will this simple gravy and let me know how it turned out.
