    Here is a typical Kerala dish.

    Ingredients:
    cup plantains cubed
    cup cucumber cubed
    cup yam cubed
    Salt to taste
    tsp tumeric powder

    6 dried chillies also toasted
    cup fresh grated coconut

    For Seasoning:
    1 tbs coconut oil
    tsp mustard seeds
    1 dried chillie cut into pieces
    1 sprig curry leaves

    Method:
    Place the cubed vegetables in a pot, pour just enough water
    To cover them. Sprinkle on salt and tumeric and simmer over
    Medium heat. After 5 minutes add tamarind dissolved in a
    Cup of water, and brown sugar and simmer for another 5 minutes.

    In a blender grind the urad dal, dry chillies and the coconut
    Using just enough water to make a thick smooth paste.
    Combine the ground coconut mixture and the cooked vegetables
    And simmer for another 5 minutes. Remove from stove.

    Heat oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds. When the seeds splutter
    Add in the dry chillies and curry leaves. Pour this over the cooked
    Vegetables. Serve hot with rice.

    Its difficult to get seem paal nowadays.
    This is my version of imitation seem paal.
    Try it once , you will enjoy it.


    SEEM PAAL

    Ingredients:
    250 grms full cream powdered milk
    1 litre warm water
    150 grms sugar ( more if you like )
    15 ml vinegar (more or less till the milk curdles)
    1 pandan leaf ( pandanus leaf) tied in a knot


    Method:
    Mix the milk in the water.Add the sugar
    Also add the pandan leaf.
    Put the pot with the milk on fire and let it boil.
    While it is boiling vigorously, add the vinegar slowly.
    The milk will curdle.
    You can see the milk solids and the whey.
    You can serve it warm or chilled.


    If you do not have pandan leaf, just add a drop of vanilla essence.
