    About Vellarikka Curry Recipe

    A curry is a spicy sauce-based dish that is commonly associated with South Asian cuisine. Curry tree leaves may be included in southern India.

    Curry comes in a variety of flavours. The selection of spices for each dish in traditional cuisines is a matter of national or regional cultural tradition, religious practise, and chef preference. These dishes are named after their ingredients, spices, and cooking methods. A curry is a Southeast Asian dish that uses coconut milk or spice pastes and is commonly served over rice outside of the Indian subcontinent.

    Raw mango and Cucumber curry is a traditional Kerala dish that goes great with hot rice. Mango is indigenous to India and Southeast Asia, and it has been cultivated for over 4,000 years. There are hundreds of varieties of mango, each with its own distinct flavour, shape, size, and colour. Mango is high in polyphenols, which are plant compounds that act as antioxidants in the body.

    Ingredients for Mango and Cucumber Curry (Vellarikka Curry Recipe)

    • Cucumber - 1
    • Raw Mango - 1
    • Oil - 2 tsp
    • Mustard Seeds / Kaduku - 1 tsp
    • Urad dal / Ulundu Paruppu - 1 tsp
    • Dry Red Chilli - 2
    • Curry leaves - 1 sprig
    • Asafoetida / Hing / Kaya Podi a pinch
    • Chilli powder - 1 tsp or to taste
    • Turmeric Powder - 1 tsp
    • Salt to taste
    • Sugar - 1 tbsp
    • Water as needed

    Cucumber :

    Because of their high water content, cucumbers have a mild, lightly sweet flavour. They are crisp, cool, and refreshing to eat raw, which is why they are referred to as cool as a cucumber. Cucumber skin has a more earthy flavour, but many people prefer it for its texture, flavour, and health benefits.

    Raw Mango:

    Because of the presence of oxalic, citric, and succinic acids, raw mango has a sour taste. Raw mangoes are a good source of vitamin B complex and vitamin C, which is higher than in ripe mangoes. Raw mango is also high in pectin.

    Mustard Seeds :

    They are used as a seasoning rather than a base flavour in many Indian dishes, and they really perk up a lentil or rice dish when fried in a little oil with curry leaves . As a result, mustard seeds are excellent for adding flavour without adding fat to your diet.
