White Kurma

White Kurma

"Hello! Always be happy and stay positive"


White kurma or Saravana Bhavan kurma or velai kurma is a vegetarian kurma that tastes delicious and it contains potatoes, carrot, beans. It is one of the traditional food of the south region of India. We can serve with chapati, paratha, and biryani.

Making kurma is simple. I have made this with coconut and it is slightly the Kerala style kurma made with coconut and coconut oil. I have uploaded this white kurma because of our one of the viewer's recommendation. This kurma is less in spices and can feed our children

White kurma is specially made without coriander and spices so it looks white and it takes fresh and delicious treat for vegetarians during Sundays.

Capsicum Chutney

Capsicum Chutney "Hello! Always be happy! Stay Positive" Capsicum chutney is a healthy condiment to serve with dosa, idly and Vada. Mostly our children regret to eat the capsicum usually so if we try like this, they will enjoy the food. Capsicum contains Vitamins A, B6, and many dietary fiber. This chutney is a very good alternative if we are interested in a different type of chutney  I have tried this capsicum chutney because my niece is a  big hater of capsicum, so I gave this chutney to her with dosa she not even identified that is capsicum she really loves that chutney. Thus it a good combo with Dosa  Capsicum Chutney is a simple recipe and the easiest chutney can serve within 15 minutes. It tastes really delicious and tastes equal to tomato chutney and the coconut chutney "Hope you enjoy and will make a try"

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.
