Milagu Kuzhambu, Paruppu Thogayal, Lunch menu 15

A popular Tamil brahmin style lunch combo is chosen for this lunch menu. Milagu Kuzhambu, fondly called as molagu kuzhambu, mixed with hot rice, accompanied with paruppu thogayal and sutta appalam(fire roasted papad), a divine combo in our house. But generally in addition to this we make one kootu or curry to include one vegetable in our meal. Generally Milagu kuzhambu is made on Saturdays or Sundays, the day we take oil bath. The reason is the pepper prevents us from getting cold after an oil bath. Also milagu kuzhambu is a must in post partum food. We include garlic in milagu kolambu when making for newly delivered moms. This spicy pepper gravy pairs beautifully with Aviyal and Seppankizhangu roast( arbi fry).
This week's lunch menu has
  1. Hot rice
  2. Milagu kuzhambu (South Indian pepper flavoured gravy)
  3. Aviyal (mixed veggies in coconut based gravy)
  4. Seppankizhangu fry ( arbi roast)
  5. Paruppu thogayal (pepper flavoured toor dal chutney)
  6. Store bought vadams
