KULAMBHU KARUVADAM | TRADITIONAL SOUTH INDIAN RECIPES

Kulambhu-karuvadam

    Kulambhu karuvadam|Kulambhu Vadam is an authentic Tamil brahmin recipe, made at our houses during summer season. Apart from that we have the practise of making this if a girl is got engaged. Few weeks before wedding we make this karuvadam as it is considered good. I remember the days before my wedding, when i made this in our terrace. Amma prepares the dough and we will be asked to put them in the plastic sheets. Some houses they make during sumangali poojas too.
   This vadam is used in sambars, kootus,vathakulambhu and some people like to eat the fried one with curd rice  too. My mom made this and my nephew clicked the step wise pictures and sent to me.
   Few readers asked me to post this this kulambhu vadam recipe and other vadam recipes.  We are travelling to India next week. Will try my best to make it possible.

  • In a  clean,dry plastic sheet make small small balls of the batter. Keep in the open terrace or in the place where you get abundant sun light.
  • The second day you just flip the vadams.  Let this dry in the bright sun light till they become completely dried up. It took 3 days for it to completely dry. After the secon day you can even transfer it to a wide plate and dry it too.
