    Kerala Kappa Masala Recipe

    I love tapioca, I love the flavour and the richness of it. We often just season the tapioca with spices and have it with a chilli chutney. I also add it to samosas and have it. But this one makes it even more tasty and takes it to the next level. The crushed garlic and chillies add a new dimension to this. So try it and let me know how it turns out.

    Ingredients for Masala Kappa

    Tapioca / Kappa / Marchini Kilangu - 1 large peeled and cubed (around 5 cups)
    Salt to taste
    Coconut Oil - 3 tblspn
    Mustard Seeds / Kaduku -  1 tblspn
    Urad dal / Ulundu - 1 tblspn
    Curry leaves a handful
    Dry Red Chilli - 6 to 8
    Garlic - 5 cloves
    Turmeric Powder / Manjal Podi - 2 tsp
