Tips & Secrets
- Using gingelly oil (Sesame oil) is the absolute secret to achieving the authentic nutty flavor of a Kuzhambu.
- Shallots (Small onions) are crucial; they provide a much deeper and more traditional sweetness than regular onions.
- The coconut and poppy seed paste provides a unique silkiness without making the gravy heavy.
- Do not over-thicken the curry; the beauty of an authentic Kuzhambu lies in its fluid and aromatic consistency.
