What are the vegetables to be used in ezhu kari kootu, pongal kootu? Any naatu kaai can be used, parangikai, mochai, avarakkai, vazhakkai, sakkarai valli kizhangu, seppankizhangu, karunai kizhangu. And special thanks to Jeyashri for the veggies and the cute mat This year no Pongal celebrations for us, but wanted to post this recipe here as I got few requests from the readers. There are lot of traditions followed for Pongal by MOM and MIL, but in Singapore, I make it simple. Even the sambar and vadai we make on these days we do not add onion as we offer to God. Since we make it for festival, we don't add onion or sambar powder in this kootu. Sometimes make Kalkandu pongal also along with this. We make sakkarai pongal, vellai pongal, this ezhukari kootu, vadai and vendakkai sambar on Pongal day. Please refer the notes for the vegetables choice. This kootu is very flavourful with all our naatu kaigaris (country vegetables). Ezhukari kootu (kootu made with 7 veggies) traditionally made for the south Indian tamil festival thiruvathirai and pongal at our home.
