Kaplanga Pulissery

Pulissery or Moru curry is a must for Sadya. I am not a big fan of sambar but Pulissery and Parippu curry are my favorites to pair with rice. Being married to a sambar lover, we do keep rotating all possible gravy options for our meals, so that both of us get to have their favorites.

Pulissery has different versions. Some just have the seasoned buttermilk, which is usually called Moru kachiyathu at our place and others have veggies like cucumber or papaya or okra etc. that is added along with coconut to the seasoned buttermilk and that is termed as Pulissery. Having those veggies soaked in buttermilk, to bite on is a special treat. It just pairs so well with rice.

Moru Kachiyathu / Kachiya Moru / Seasoned Buttermilk

Moru Kachiyathu is a must at our house and I am sure it would be the same for most of us malayali's. It is so amazing, how such a simple recipe can enhance the taste of lunch to a greater level. 

Choru (rice) and Moru Kachiyathu, itself is such a great combination that with just a simple egg omelet (indian style) as a side, you are sure to have had a fulfilling lunch. All said, while I clicked the below pictures for this post, I had my all time favorite Kale Kootu to go along with rice and Kachiya moru.
