Pavakkai Puli Kuzhambu – Chettinad Bitter Gourd Gravy
Recently I came across this Chettinad style Pagarkai Puli Kuzhambu recipe in Solai aachi’s blog. Its my favorite blog for Chettinad recipes. I loved the simplicity & ease of the recipe and tried it for our lunch. Sendhil told this kuzhambu tastes better than Pavakkai Pitali ( I think he got bored of my usual pitlai).
From then, I started making this easy, no grind, one pot bitter gourd gravy ( Pavakkai Kuzhambu in Tamil) without coconut very often in my kitchen. Its a very simple kuzhambu recipe that can be made quickly during busy week days or lazy weekends. I make this gravy for Sendhil’s lunch box.
My Father visited my place and stayed here for two weeks. My dad loves varieties of Kara kuzhambu recipes. My dad liked it very much. I am happy that I have got a delicious, healthy gravy with bitter gourd. Bachelors and working women can try this if you like bitter gourd. Lets see how to prepare this easy Chettinad style Pavakkai Puli kulambu recipe with step by step pictures.

Pavakkai Puli Kuzhambu Recipe
Chettinad style tangy Bitter gourd gravy for rice.
Cuisine: South Indian
Category: Kuzhambu recipes
Serves: Serves 2-3
Prep time: 10 Minutes

METHOD

Note
Adjust the quantity of sambar powder and dhania powder as per your taste. You can replace bitter gourd with drumstick or brinjal. But keep the drumstick/ brinjal in a separate bowl inside the cooker because it will become mushy when directly cooked in the gravy. Do not add more water in the cooker. Gravy will become watery & thin. To rectify this, you can either boil the gravy till thick OR dilute 1 tsp rice flour in 2 tsp water. Add to gravy and boil for 3 minutes. Add a tsp of gingely oil or ghee while serving ! |
Try this easy, yummy Pavakkai Puli kuzhambu for your lunch and enjoy with any kootu/ dal or just with a papad. We had with Andhra ridge gourd dal and kai murukku
