Karuveppilai Kuzhambu

With Amma visiting, we always start making very healthy and traditional recipes. Amma always loves medicinal vegetables and makes sure that it is incorporated into the diet. Some months ago my sister called me to find out the easy version of the karuvapillai kozhambu that Amma used to make. I told her I had no clue and she told me that I need to blog it next time because it very delicious. So this time my Amma helped me make this kozhambu and I loved it. It was super easy and I loved the saucy texture of the kozhambu. It paired very well with moong and channa dhal paruppu thogayal.
