Madurai Meen Kuzhambu/Madurai Fish Gravy

 

 

 

Madurai is synonymous with non-vegetarian dishes.They make plenty of dishes with the single ingredient..My previous post on my Chala Meen Kuzhambu had been a great hit in my blog and it had hiked my page visits to a greater extent.

 

After a long time again I am posting a fish gravy that is prepared in a Madurai Style..This dish stays good even for 2 days and it tastes more yummier the next day of cooking..

 

Try this super yummy fish gravy and let me know too how it turned up :))

 

Mutton Chukka Varuval...Madurai Muniyandi Vilas Special....

Few days back HH's friends visited our home..HH wanted me to make some non vegetarian dishes for them especially mutton.I hardly cook/eat mutton and this is the first time I am trying a sidedish out of mutton.Earlier I had posted mutton Kola Urundai which was my first attempt in making some starters out of lamb..

 

There are various methods in making this dry fry by changing the ingredients.I made this dish very simple by excluding the addition of grinded masala...

 

This is an easy dish to make and the taste is exotic with Rasam Rice/Sambhar rice..

 

Mutton Kola Urundai-Madurai Kumar Mess Special

I had heard a lot about kola urundai but didn't have any chance to taste it.Moreover I don't like mutton and I hardly cook mutton at home too..Last week we went to Madurai Philatelic Bureau(This is all time great Obsession from my childhood!!)to collect the new philatelic stamps..We had our lunch at Kumar Mess-a famous non vegetarian hotel in Madurai which serves many exotic chettinad varieties.

 

By compulsion of the one who served,I happened to taste the kola urundai...To my surprise I had 3 pieces and Hari was surprised to see me eating Mutton Kola Urundai (I don't like mutton!!)The balls didn't have a drop of oil in it..though it was deep fried!!!

 

I just felt in love with the Kumar mess Kola Urundai.I came home but still cannot forget the taste.

I kept browsing many blogs,but finally followed Solai Achi's recipe and made these balls.What a surprise!!!It tasted similar to that of the ones which I had tasted at the Kumar mess.It was a super hit and passed a few balls to my friends..Even they were much taken back by the exotic taste of the balls..

 

So do try it and U will then say kola urundais are much easier to make..

Just stick on to the ingredients..Don't do any changes..Do as I did..I strictly followed Solai Achi's recipe..

Madurai Spicy Chutney/Madurai Kara Chutney

People from Madurai will never deny the fact that roadside shops taste yummy than the high class restaurants.Of course the food served in mess(a small road side hotel)is just awesome.

 

Apart from the aromatic jasmines Madurai is famous for idly and parotta.The chutneys they serve looks very yummy and also tastes so good.
When u visit Madurai don't miss to have Jigirthanda from Famous Jigirthanda shop!!
