Going to Kerala, my home town, is most existing especially for the yummy home (mum) cooked food we get to eat. My mum always asks me for a list of things I want to eat in advance. My list always always always includes her prawn ularthu with coconut cuts. Ethra thinnalum mathi varilla.
In uk I try to recreate that culinary experience using raw tiger prawns, frozen coconut cuts and kudampuli (Gambooge - wiki yude kripa :] ) brought from Kerala during our last visit.
Ingredients
1 - Prawns (raw) - 500g
Kudampuli - 2 or 3 judging on the time it has spend in ur food cupboard :)
Coconut cuts - 1/2 cup
Curry leaves - 1 sprig
Shallots - 3-4
Garlic - 1 tsp
Ginger - 1 tsp
Red chilli powder - 1 1/2 tsp
Coriander powder - 1 1/2 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
2 - Mustard seeds - 1 tsp
Coconut cuts - 2 tbsp
Curry leaves
3 - Salt to taste
Oil - 2 tbsp
Method
- Boil (1) with enough salted water till prawns change colour from gray to orange.
- Heat oil in a pan, splutter mustard seeds, add 2 tbsp coconut cuts and fry till ends turn light brown.
- Now add curry leaves followed by the cooked prawn mixture. Taste for sourness and remove kudampuli pieces if you think the curry needs no more sourness. Simmer till all the water disappers.
Serve hot with plain rice and yogurt. Yummm.
Cheers

ReplyDeleteThe packaging industry has changed quite a bit over the years, and now people mostly expect products to stay fresh while also looking good on store shelves, like really good. One innovation that’s made a noticeable difference is Bopp Anti Fog Film, particularly for packing fresh fruit, vegetables, dairy products, and ready-to-eat meals. It basically helps stop condensation from building up inside the package, so customers can see what they’re buying, clearly , and the items still keep their freshness. Since the demand for convenient and hygienic food packing keeps rising, manufacturers are more and more using this approach to boost product presentation , keep things appealing for longer, and strengthen the whole consumer experience.
