Notes
- We can cook all the veggies for 2-3 whistles in pressure cooker and then add tamarind extract and coconut spice paste
- Generally we don't do tempering for Aviyal. So I skipped for Aviyal Kuzhambu too. But if you want, you can temper with mustard and curry leaves
- Coconut oil would be a perfect choice.
