I typically make a poriyal too with this purple cabbage (which my daughter thought was a giant raisin when she was younger :D) The macaroni must add an interesting texture.. do you typically serve this with rice?
Laavanya
Sorry, i just saw that you've mentioned that you serve with rice... so pls ignore my qn.

Sangeetha
Interesting....What does this dish go with? The usual sambar/rasam/thogaiyal? I'm not sure...very confused! Will it taste like sundal? (I'm a visitor from chennai and just going through your recipes)
Raks anand
As the name says its just like poriyal, so serve as accompaniment for sambar rice or any kuzhambu or rasam 🙂
Imrah
