Green Moong Curry| Kongu Style Paasi Payaru Kulambu

Paasi Payaru Kulambu:

One of the earliest recipes which I learnt from my roommates. They both belonged to the Kongu Naadu and this is a version of the green gram curry I make. I am sure there are several versions of it from the Kongunaadu cuisine. A very quick and healthy curry you can make with green moong is this Paasi Payaru Kulambu.
