Since I heard a lot about the goodness of dry ginger I brought some from India. It was laying in my shelf for quite sometime. Other day when I wanted to try some puli kuzhambu type I remembered my grand ma’s sukku peper kulambu. I have used Fish masala powder in this you can replace it with sambar powder if you prefer. This kuzhambu turned to be very tasty and our family loved it (like any other kuzhambu). In addition to that it has lot of medical benefits too
Ingredients
Shallots or small onion – 10
Garlic – 5 pods
Tomatoes – 1 small (finely chopped)
Fish / chicken masala / sambar powder/ Meat masala – 1 teaspoon (I have used meat masala)

Curry leaves – 10
Gingerly oil – 2 tablespoon
Mustard seeds – 1/4 teaspoon

Dry ginger – 1 inch
Pepper corn – 1 /2 teaspoon
Cumin seeds – 1/2 teaspoon
Method
Dry roast ingredients in the list. keep it aside.
Add a teaspoon of oil. Add onion and fry till transparent. Add tomatoes and fry till mushy. Add meat masala, turmeric powder, red chilli powder. Fry till raw smell goes off. switch it off and let it cool down.
