Hi Sailaja,

Is it possible that you could upload more recipes using uluvalu, that doesn’t have much oil. I am a weight watcher and i have heard that its very very healthy.

Thanks,

Poornima.

Sailu–I love the taste of tamarind, but I never knew it was used as an ingredient, only as a condiment. This sounds delicious!

Hi Sailu,

Would like to know if U have any other recipes using horsegram. I once had a side dish(something like kurma), made with horsegram which went well with puri & peas pulao,in a friend’s place. They were from Andhra. So thought it might be some traditional andhra recipe. If U have any recipe like the above said, pls do post it.
