Meera, varan wt jeera is new n looks good- u know keeping the rest of recipe same, consistency thick, addition of 2 cloves garlic+2 green chilies in grinding and addition of boiled shenga during boiling stage makes it a different(mallu) dish!Isn't it amazing!

Thanks so much for sharing the Kerala version!! I surely am going to try it soon. and it really amazes me how sometimes we come across similar recipes but addition (or subtraction) of few spices and herbs create a unique flavor.
Thanks, dear!!
