Pulisherry is an authentic Kerala side dish which goes well with rice for lunch.

Pulisherry can be prepared with a variety of alternate vegetables as the main ingredient and accordingly the name varies. The main ingredient can be Cucumber (Vellarika), Mango, Pineapple, Banana etc.









The one I have prepared today is the Vellarika Pulisherry.



Ingredients

Cucumber - 1 medium size



Curd (Yogurt) - 3 Tbsps

Turmeric powder - 1 tsp

Red chillie powder - 1/2 tsp

Salt - 1 tsp (alter as per taste)



For tempering

Oil - 1 Tbsp

Shallots - 3

Dried Red chillie - 2

Mustard seeds - 1 tsp

Fenugreek seeds - 1 tsp

Curry leaves - a bunch



For the Gravy 

Coconut - 4 Tbsps (grated)

Cumin seeds - 1tsp

Shallots - 3

Green chillie - 1



Preparation

1) Peel and cut the cucumber into small pieces and boil it in a pan with enough water and salt till it gets cooked.



2) Put the ingredients for the gravy in a mixer and grind it into a smooth paste. 



3) Add the paste from the mixer to the cooked cucumber along ith the turmeric powder and red chillie powder and boil it for a  few minutes.Keep stirring in between.



4) Switch off the heat and add the beaten curd to it. Stir it for a few minutes. The Pulisherry can be now transferred to a serving bowl.



5) In a separate pan add oil and put the mustard seeds. Once it starts sputtering , add the shallots (finely chopped) , fenugreek seeds, curry leaves and dried red chillies.Saute them for a minute without getting them burnt. Get it from the pan and add on the top of Pulisherry. The Vellarika Pulisherry is ready to be served!!!!!!!
