Moru Curry
And so yet another Onam has gone by and the last week has been a lazy one after all the celebration. I haven’t been cooking much and recovering from an eye infection. I am feeling much better today.
This is one of those curry that I make quite often at home and this is my quick fix for those busy/lazy days. I absolutely love this and all I need is some mango pickle to go with it. Please add water as required for the consistency you need.

- Grated coconut – 1/2 cup

- Fenugreek seeds – 1/2 teaspoon
- Cumin seeds – 1/4 teaspoon

How to –
In blender, blend the grated coconut, yogurt, cumin seeds, turmeric powder, green chili, to a fine paste.
