Tapioca kootu is a best food for lactating moms. Amma makes this kootu for lunch daily during my first three months after pregnancy. I love this so much, that i can have it daily with no boring. Amma makes it little liquidy to go perfect with rice. You can make this thick and have it with meen kari. You can check out all my kootu recipes here and if you want to see more of tapioca recipes, check here..
