Vatha Kuzhambu, My favorite dish to make for lunch. Recently I have started to use my vathakuzhambu podi for making that and it was a huge success. I have already made a sundaikai vatha kuzhambu using that powder and it turned out really great.
This is a vatha kuzhambu made with manathakkali vathal and I loved it so much. You can use chenarikkai vathal or any vathal as you like. Will share the different version soon. Keep checking my blog.
