About - Avarakkai Kootu Recipe
Avarakkai Kootu is a healthy and easy side dish popularly made throughout the southern parts of India. It is a simple recipe made with the green vegetable Avarakkai. Avarakkai is a Tamil name for flat beans, they are also known as broad beans and field beans. In other Indian languages, avarakkai is known as val papdi, valor and sem ki phalli.
Avarakkai Kootu tastes best with rasam, plain rice and ulundhu appalam or kara kulambu (spicy tamarind curry), plain rice with sutta appalam. It even goes very well with chapati. I'd like to eat the kootu recipe with tamarind-based curries such as puli aanam (tamarind curry), karuveppilai kulambu (curry leaves curry) and poondu kulambu (garlic curry).
All right, let's move on to the Avarakkai Kootu Recipe.
