Chamagadda Pulusu recipe /Arbi or Colocacia Curry-చామగడ్డ పులుసు

By BINDU 1 Comment

Chamagadda Pulusu recipe with step by step instructions.
chamagadda pulusu recipe

This curry is prepared in different ways in different regions.In Andhra, jaggery is added to the tamarind gravy at the end.this is to balance the tanginess of the tamarind.ginger garlic paste, garam masala, fenugreek&cumin seeds powder and coriander powder shouldn’t be used when jaggery is added.this is what I knew about the jaggery version.

the recipe which I made is Telangana version.I prepared this recipe exactly in the same way how the fish curry is prepared except adding the coconut.the taste was really amazing and felt like tasting the fish curry.my husband and daughter like it very much.

one of the youtube viewers told me that “we don’t need to pre-boil the colocasia.just peel off the skins, add them directly to the sauteed onions and then pressure cook.because they may get mushy if we pre-boil them”.he may be correct.it would be difficult for the beginners to pre-boil them perfectly.I had never tried that way.I always pressure cook them(before adding to the curry) up to 3 whistles and wait until the pressure goes away.later I put them in the normal water and remove the skins.by doing this the skin comes off very easily and the colocasia gets cooked perfectly and still retain the shape.

Colocasia or Chamagadda or Arbi is a rich source of vitamins and many minerals.this vegetable has multiple health benefits.tastes even good after few hours of cooking just like the fish curry.this recipe goes well with hot rice or Rotis or Pulkas.I hope you try and enjoy this recipe.
