'Upperi' is the mallu name for the dry side dish which we have for lunch along with rice. Its also named 'Poriyal', 'Thoran' etc etc. Well I thought i should try out something today.
And this is what i did...
Ingredients:
1.Carrots-3
2.Potato-2
3.Cabbage-1/2 piece
4.Onion-2
Cut 1,2,3,and 4 into small slices.
a. Heat oil in pan, add mustard seeds.
b. Add sliced ingredients 1,2,3 and 4 along with 'karuveppila'(dont know the english name for this)
c. Add corainder powder(1 tspn),chilli powder(1 tspn), turmeric(a little) and Salt(to taste)
d. Add a little water and allow it to boil(Close the pan and wait)
After a while, chck if the vegetables are cooked and then serve with rice:)
This hardly takes 15 minutes!!!
This is not a great dish...but just thought it would inspire people like me to start cooking at least:).
Please Note: I have done some cooking when i was in Shanghai....So i am no novice here:)(But still equivalent to novice)

Another try at art - Peacock feather
Since my maternity leave started, I have been wanting to do some art work. Also the upstairs bedroom really needed some kind of color in it....
hey dearie! kudos 4 startin cookin! n its curry leaves for karuvepila..
ReplyDeleteHehe... U can first saute the onions & 'curry leaves' in oil after the mustard seeds have spluttered. Once the onions r golden, add some coconut (amount depends on how much u like!) and saute for some time. Finally, u can add the veggies and then cook them as u described! Oh yes, dont forget the chilli powder & the turmeric powder!
ReplyDeleteSo, this is a note from a not-so-novice cook now ;) Happy cooking :)
