Carrot Kurma

Carrot Kurma

"Hello! Always be happy and Stay Healthy "

Kurma is an everyday side-dish that often used in south India. Thus it is a good side dish for Chapati, Poori, Dosai, Rice, and Biryani. Mostly the kurma is made with the Potatoes, soya chunks, cauliflower, and green peas. This is a new trial I have made with the carrot. I will do this kurma once in a week for chapati or poori. It really tastes delicious and with a good aromatic flavor.

Carrot contains many good beneficial things like potassium, Beta carbonate, Vitamin A, K1, Fiber, Antioxidants. They are weight loss friendly food that contains low cholesterol and that they improve eye health.

Will see the clear view of how to make the delicious and tasty kurma
