Kumbakonam Kadappa


It had been always a challenge to make a sidedish for Idly,dosa or poori...My kids always wanted a variety and most of the mornings I  break my small brain what to make for the sidedish...I don't want  them to get addicted with Nutella spread for the dosa...U cannot name a kid who don't like potatoes...Suddenly I remembered this dish which we tasted it in a small hotel at Thanjavur(Tanjore) when we were there for a trip
 
Say......Kadappa... or....Cuddapah....One can visualize either the blackstone used for making slabs or a place in Andhra....But for the people in Thanjavur district...they could oly visualize the tasty kadappa dish being served with hot steamed Idlies...
 
Kumbakonam is famous for temples,betal leaf and also for the tasty kadappa.Don't miss to taste the dish when u visit kumbakonam...It is very popular in Tanjore too..
 
As Hari doesn't like the taste of it I don't make it very often at home...The taste is between sambhar and Kurma...
 
For the recipe pls press READ MORE below....
 
 




 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 







Finally even if u miss tasting the kadappa don't miss to see the dharasuram temple near kumbakonam...
