Pineapple pulissery, a traditional kerala sadya dish. Soft cooked pineapple topped with coconut green chili paste and sour yogurt. Pineapple pulissery pairs well with steaming hot rice and papadam
I have used 5 rings of pineapple. Chop them into chunks. Take chopped pineapple chunks in a sauce pan, add ¼ cup of water, turmeric and salt and cook the pineapple chunks.
It will take around 10-12 minutes for the chunks to cook. While it is cooking, take the ingredients under 'to grind' and make it a fine paste. Mix the ground paste with buttermilk/sour curd.
Now once the pineapple is soft, pour the buttermilk/curd mixed spice paste. Mix well and let it be on stove for just 5 minutes. Remove the pulissery from the stove. Do not allow to boil, the curry will split/curdle.
Heat oil in a small tadka pan, splutter mustard seeds, crackle cumin, add hing, fenugreek seeds, red chilies and curry leaves and chopped shallots, fry for a minute or until the onions turn golden brown, pour this tadka over the pulissery.
Serve it along with rice and enjoy a sweet melody of all flavors.
