Ingredients

  • 1 cup pudalangai / snake gourd chopped
  • 2 tablespoon chana dal
  • 1 big onion chopped finely
  • 1.5 tablespoon coconut grated
  • 5 cashews broken into small pieces
  • salt to taste
  • 2 teaspoon oil

To Temper:

  • a small piece bay leaf
  • 1/4 inch piece cinnamon
  • 3 cloves
  • 5 garlic chopped finely
  • 2 green chillies chopped finely

Instructions

  • Soak channa dal in water for an hour, keep aside.
  • Clean snake gourd and chop it roughly.
  • Grind the pudalangai with channa dhal coarsely. I used my chopper to grind, do not make it to a paste, it should be in bits and pieces.
  • If you use mixie, then use the blend option and run once for a second that's enough. It may let out water so squeeze it and keep aside.
  • Roast cashews in little oil until golden brown, set aside.
  • In a non stick pan heat remaining oil and add the items under ‘to temper’ then add onions and saute till golden brown.
  • Then add the veggie with channa dhal. Add required salt and give a quick stir.
  • Keep sauteing and take care not to burn it. No need to add water, saute until it turns to a slightly brown shade.
  • At this stage add roasted cashews and coconut, mix well and saute till coconut turns slightly browned.
  • Switch off. Tasty Pudalangai Poriyal ready!

Notes

  • Adjust coconut as per your liking. You can add in more.
  • Take care not to burn the veggie , it should be sauted well till it becomes golden brown.
  • Adding cashews is optional but enhances the flavour.
