Kerala Moru Curry Recipe
Hi Friends,
I’m going to make buttermilk curry today. This recipe is known as “moru Kulambu” in the south and is particularly popular in Kerala. A Kerala-style moru kulambu and a Tamilnadu-style moru kulambu are the two varieties of moru kulambu that I am familiar with. Today, I’ll explain how to make Kerala moru kulmabu in simple, easy-to-understand with step-by-step pictures.
MORU KULAMBU
In Kerala, muru kulambu is well known. Typically, this dish is prepared for the Onam celebration. It is both a traditional and tasty dish. The cooking time for the moru kulambu recipe is only 5 to 10 minutes. This dish is a favorite in my family. It pairs well with steamed rice and potato fries. We can also use this leftover moru kulambu with idiyappam, which is a major benefit. One of the most well-known dishes in Kerala is idiyappam with moru kulambu. The main ingredient in this dish is coconut.
If we have stomach problem at that time, we can have this Moru kulambu dish. Moru Kulambu is a very mild curry and also good for health. Calcium, vitamin D, vitamin B12, and protein are important elements that are rich in curd. These nutrients are essential for the body’s different physiological processes, including the metabolism of energy and bone health.
