Method:

  • Soak the toor dal in very little water for 15 mins. Beat the curd nicely using a whisk  and make it as buttermilk. The butter milk should be thick. Add salt as needed , turmeric powder and asafoetida to it and keep it aside.

  • Grind the soaked toor dal,jeeragam green chillies and coconut into a fine paste.
  • While grinding this don’t use water,use the buttermilk we have kept aside. This will prevent from the mor kulambhu becoming watery.

  • Keep the flame small and cook till frothy.
  • Once it becomes frothy switch off the flame.

  • Temper mustard and red chili in coconut oil and add to this.
  • Add curry leaves.

  • Add the ladies finger before serving.
  • Transfer it to a serving bowl and do not cover it fully immediately. Slightly cover it and when it is warm then fully close it.

Notes:

  1. I have added toor dal to this recipe, you can replace with raw rice too.
  2. Some people add dhaniya or coriander seeds to mor kuzhambu. Check my kalyana morkuzhambu recipe for that version.
