    What is Poriyal?

    Poriyal, tamil name given to dry curries made with vegetables. It is a simple stir-fry of any vegetable with chilies, finished with coconut. Poriyals are regular in south-indian homes. Broadbeans Poriyal, French beans poriyal are some common stir-fries in a south-Indian kitchen.

    Kadambam is tamil word for a mix. So, here kadamba poriyal means mixed vegetables stir-fry.

    The Lunch Menu

    Today’s lunch thali is a simple Tamil brahmin lunch. Most days of the week you will find rasam and dry subzi in the menu. So, I try to combine kootu/dal and rasam with a dry subzi for our lunch. Its a win-win for everyone and a wholesome meal in minutes, with less stress in the kitchen.

    How to Serve this mixed vegetable poriyal

    • Serve this mixed vegetable dry curry as an accompaniment with rice like I have served here in the thali.
    • You can also serve this colorful mixed vegetable curry with roti. If you prefer dry subzi with your bread, then this mixed vegetable curry is for you. This dry subzi gets done in minutes and is apt for packing into lunch boxes.
    • To serve this flavorsome curry to kids, I suggest keeping it as a stuffing in bread or roti and roll it along with some green chutney or a dab of tomato sauce. It will be a wholesome meal and a hearty lunchbox meal.

      Priya, I don’t get Indian Vegetables where I am, so this one is just perfect for me to try out. Get potatoes, carrots, bell pepper, etc. And have sambar powder. The different flavour and style of this mixed vegetable subzi is a must try recipe.
