PINEAPPLE PULISSERY

Posted in : Onam sadya| Kerala recipes| on September 3, 2017 by : Divya Suresh Tags: ONAM-PINEAPPLE

Pineapple Pulissery is a curd based curry or gravy, which is again to be eaten with rice. We, in Karnataka prepare curd curry and sasive which are also a curd based curry (majjige Paldya/huli) or gravy.

So this Pulissery is the mix of Karnataka’s both curd curry and sasive. And as I have mentioned many a times earlier, I’m the biggest fan of pineapple and I don’t want to miss any dish prepared using pineapple. So obviously this recipe grabbed my attention.

There are some more Kerala recipes which are prepared using pineapple, I shall try out all of them one by one. And as far as talking about this recipe, I followed Simple Indian recipes post, submitted by Dahlia

Since it is a curd based curry, I have used ghee for tempering, otherwise they use coconut oil only for this recipe also.
