Karuvapillai Molagu Kozhambu For Chettinadu Cuisine

Its Feb 5Th and the last day for RCI: Chettinadu Vegetarian Cuisine event posts. I have been racking my mind to think of something to post for the event myself. I decided to ask my sister to get me some recipes from her close friends living in D.C. The recipe Annamalai and his wife Rajee gave my sister was the Karuvapillai Molagu Kozhambu. It took me less than 10 minutes to prepare and I hope I was able to come up with the perfect taste as the recipe would have called for. I liked what I tasted and I am sure you all would.
