    Peanut Puli Kuzhambu

    Puli Kuzhambu’s are my favorite. I love the tangy taste in it. This Peanut puli kuzhambu idea has been brought to me by my friend. Till she told me about this I was thinking we can use only vegetables in kuzhambu. But now Peanut is a tasty alternative to vegetables.

    • You can replace Sambar powder with other spice powders, I have mentioned them in the ingredients list.
    • Pairs well with Steamed Rice and Omelet.
    • I have used roasted peanut for this kuzhambu otherwise roast the peanuts separately before adding into the kuzhambu.
