Sodhi Kulambu
In South India stews means vegetables or meat cooked in coconut milk. I have already made a simple potato stew and a vegetable stew. These stews pair beautiful with plain steamed rice, aapam or idiappam. I have a simple coconut milk aapam and my mom's crispy aapam..
This stew is a recipe from tirunelveli. I met one of my relative few weeks back, and told me to post more traditional recipes around southindia. I was talking about this to my perimma, suddenly she asked me 'have you posted tirunelveli sodhi recipe'. told her no, immediately she told me the recipe. She also suggested me to serve it with potato roast and puli inchi. I made it the next day itself, and it was heave..So here i am with the recipe..

Aarthi,
You can try adding a tsp of lemon juice to sodhi once its cool. This takes sodhi to different level. I am from Tirunelveli and sodhi is a integral part of our marriages and all functins.
