ANDHRA PAPPU

தமிழில் காண : கிளிக்   Hi Everyone, My sister makes this Andhra Pappu atleast 3 times a week , but it will be less spicy ,less tangy so I don't love it and never thought of trying it myself. Recently one of my viewer friend Ms.Suganya asked me about this pappu as she tasted it once in Hyderabad and she gave me some hinds like it was spicy , tangy with green leaves and it was super tasty.Now I got tempted to try this pappu and asked my neighbour Andhra aunty , she gave me so many versions in pappu and this is one.

KADAMBA / KANAVA MASALA /SQUID FISH CURRY

Hi, Sea has lot of creatures in it that we can cook and we were much more unaware of many . Squid fish is one among the yummy species which I was totally unaware even after coming to Chennai.One day in market I saw them and surprised that they are selling octopus ( it looked like that to me :)). Then I surfed in net and found actually they are squid ( kadamba / kanava) and not octopus , My friend Saranya cooked this gravy for us during her visit to our home .I copied the recipe from her and tried next week itself.Though the squid fish looks very weird the taste was so yummy and there is no fish odor in that.It just tasted like mutton. The cleaning part is little tricky but easy, I suggest once you finished cleaning dispose the waste immediately out of your house as the waste from squid fish is very smelly and also it starts leaving water .So dispose the waste of squid as quick as possible. Other than that the fish tastes heaven , spicy, yummy and very easy to cook. I have...
