Uddina Kadubu | Ragi & Urad Stuffed Dumplings
Introduction to Uddina Kadubu Among the many lesser known South Indian rice based delicacies is the Uddina Kadubu or rice dumplings with a black gram filling. I was introduced to this unique and traditional North Karnataka style dish while I was indulging in some random post lunch scrolling on Instagram. The recipe was shared by Savitha Enner @cooklikeayogi. The many joys of being on social media is that you get exposed to so much information shared by content creators spread across the world. The recipe I saw was inviting me to try it out and I did just that.

Keerl Ani Moog Sukho (Bamboo Shoots & Sprouted Green Gram Sauté)

The acrid (bitter)…
Galmbyaso Polov | Dried Shrimp Curry
Galmbyaso Polov or dried shrimp polov is a variant of the traditional Mangalorean ash gourd based curry which is usually meat based. This curry features dried shrimp as the main protein instead of mutton or beef. What is a polov? Polov is a coconut based curry that is lighter in colour and milder in flavour than its spicier and brighter coloured counterparts. While coconut is an integral part of Mangalorean curries, there are several recipes that do not call for it. However, the polov cannot be made without it. In fact it is rich with two types of coconut added to it – fresh and roasted. While the former provides the gravy base and the creamy flavour and texture to the curry, the latter when slow roasted to a golden colour provides the nutty aroma and flavour that is inherent…
