    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'. I 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.
