Mulakootal (Vegetables In Coconut Gravy) Recipe Recipe At Home

To begin making the Mulakootal method, firstly wash, skin and dice all vegetables.

You can use any vegetables you have at home.

I like to use vegetables like carrot, lauki, drumstick, beans, potato, white pumpkin and cauliflower.In a large pot (use an earthen pot if you have, the flavour is lovely)or in a pressure cooker, bubble all the vegetables with little aqua with seasoning and turmeric.In an another pressure cooker, bubble the toor dal and keep it aside.dehydrated bake all the components for the paste apart from coconut for 2-3 moments till fragrant and slight brown.Grind together coconut and the roasted spices to a even paste adding little aqua if required.toss in the toor dal and coconut paste to the boiled vegetables and let it low-boil further for 5 moments till the flavours have blended and the raw smell of coconut has gone.In a small tadka pot, toasty coconut cooking oil and toss in mustard seeds, red chilly and curry leaves and sauté for 2 moments.transfer this over the curry and it is ready to be served. dish up Mulakootal with fiery steamed rice for a excellent summer lunch.
