Kanda Bachali Kura is made with Kanda (Elephant Yam or suran) and Bachali (Malabar Spinach). Yam is soaked in tamarind water to eliminate the itching sensation and then boiled together with spinach. The boiled vegetables are cooked in a tempering of mustard seeds, curry leaves and red chillies, and a paste of raw rice, mustard and red chilli is added to it. This unique paste is what gives this dish its distinct taste and fragrance.

Kanda Bachali Kura, the simple mustard flavoured, unbelievably tasty dish, will please your senses.
