Kanda-Bachali Kura (Suran & Malabar-Spinach Curry)
I?m re-visiting this recipe that I posted about 2 years ago. It features in most of Andhra bhojanams (feasts). I love it since I was little and still do. Here is how we make it: ![]() Ingredients: Bachali kura ? 2-3 cups chopped Spinach ? 2 cups Kanda (Suran) ? 1 cup (I used frozen cubed suran) Ginger ? 1 tbsp, minced Green chilies ? 3, chopped Curry leaves ? 10 Tamarind paste ? 1tbsp For Tempering: Urad dal ? 1tsp Chana dal ? 1tsp Mustard seeds ? 1tsp Cumin seeds ? ½tsp Red chilies ? 3 Hing ? pinch ![]() Method: Heat 2tsp oil in a pan; add the tempering ingredients and once the seeds start to splutter; add ginger, green chilies & curry leaves and sauté for couple of minutes. Then add the green veggies; cover and cook on medium-low flame for 5-8 minutes or until almost wilted. In the meantime, de-frost frozen suran in the microwave. Once the greens are ready, add the suran and ¼ cup of water; cover and cook till suran is completely cooked. I like this dish smooth instead of chunky, so I mash suran with the back of the spoon at this stage. Then add tamarind paste and salt. Cook for another 5 minutes. Serve with steamed rice for a yummy Andhra meal. This is my entry to Cooking for Kids-Leafy Greens event. Send in your entries by the end of this month.
