PULI KUTHI UPPERI (STIR FRIED VEGETABLES WITH TAMARIND PULP)

When my aunty visited my place yesterday, we were discussing about the olden days recipes as she is also a very good cook and much interested in making and feeding her own children as well as grand children.  Though I am aware of the recipe and made it long ago, could not post it.

Puli kuthi upperi is made with certain vegetables viz. lady's finger, raw banana, green brinjal, flat beans, red pumpkin.  Colacasia leaf is also included in this and it is a main ingredient in this vegetable.

This tangy stir fried vegetable can be served as a side dish for dal rice, molagootal rice, rasam rice or as a side dish for chapati too.  It is a unique,  tangy,   recipe of Palakkad (Kerala State) enjoyed specially during rainy season when the colacasia leaf is available abundantly.  The lady's finger is also a unique one which we get long greenish, whitish in colour.
