Our Flavours

Avial is a combination of vegetables, with some coconut and other stuff thrown in. It is my favorite vegetable dish, best combined with rice, fish curry and pappadam (papad). Ah, mouth is watering at the thought. It is also a great way to get a lot of veggies into the little tummies at my house. In the mix-up, they forget that they’re eating a lot of vegetables :D. I love the Avial my mom makes. For me, she makes it slightly mushy, and it tastes oh-so-good! Mummy makes it in a very authentic way. She cooks each vegetable separately so that each is correctly cooked. And she also adds raw mangoes for the correct sourness, and takes it out if it gets too sour, etc etc. I’m too lazy to do all that, plus, not too fond of sour(tamarind-ish) taste, so my Avial preparation is very simple. The only time-consuming activity is cutting up all the vegetables. I usually use raw banana, carrot, potato, drumstick, and snake gourd. You can use the vegetables of your choice. Ingredients
