Manathakkali vathal kulambu recipe

Manathakkali vathal kulambu recipe a tangy gravy best side dish for rice. As I’ve already mentioned I love all tangy dishes and this vathal kuzhambu and puli kuzhambu tops the list.

I have already posted sundakkai vathal kuzhambu and followed almost the same recipe for this too and this time tried it in kalchatty and it sure enhanced the taste.

I served this vathal kulambu with rice,keerai poriyal and vadam.
