Carrot poriyal, a healthy poriyal for any rice varieties. This recipe is slightly different from the traditional way of doing poriyal. Generally we cook the vegetable and then do the seasoning.

Especially many kids doesn't like to eat carrot but with this recipe having a variation from the traditional way would be liked by all.
