Aavalakki.. Pavalakki...Kaanchana minna minna

Avalakki vaggarne is the most simpliest dish that can be made in just 10mins and it's our family favorite. My mom experiments a lot with this ingredient and I have learnt a lot from her.

Keep finely chopped 2md onions, 1md capsicum, 1md grated carrot, 5-6 chopped beans, 1md chopped potato, 1md bowl green peas, 3-4 finely chopped chillies, finely chopped corriander for garnishing, 6-7 curry leaves, 6-7 pudina leaves, 1/2 md slized lemon.

Take 1large bowl of avalakki. Clean it with water 2-3times and drain the water completely. Keep it aside.

Take a kadai, pour 3tbspn oil, 1tspn mustard, allow them to splutter, add 1tspn kadale beele, 1tspn uddina beele. Saute them till they look golden brown. Then add 1tspn jeera. Now add onions, saute it, add a pinch of salt so that onion gets cooked faster. Now add potato and beans, because they take time to get cooked. If required add a pinch of salt. Once potato and beans is 1/2 cooked, add grated carrot, green peas and capsicum. Mix and saute all the vegetables. Now add chillies, curry leaves and pudina leaves. Add salt as required and hing as well (if required).

Now add the soaked avalakki and mix it with the vegetables nicely. Squeeze lemon and garnish it with corriander and coconut.

Lord Krishna loves Avalakki, so dont forget to offer a small portion to him as well.
