Milagu Kuzhambu Recipe - How to make Milagu Kulambu - Pepper Kulambu

Milagu Kuzhambu Recipe - How to make Milagu Kulambu - Pepper Kulambu:

Milagu kuzhambu is not often prepared in every household. Pepper is called Milagu in Tamil. It is often ignored as it is hot. Milagu kuzhambu is used to prepare specially for the mothers post delivery at least for 15 days. We add more pepper in the milagu kulambu during that time. My mom gave me only milagu kulambu for 16 days after the delivery. It was a must to add lot of peppers during that time and my mom added gingelly oil in large quantity to make it edible.



Milagu kulambu tastes best with plain rice and curd rice. I like to have it with chapathi too. The best part is it stays good for so many days. So you can prepare it and keep it in the fridge for later usage. It is travel-friendly kulambu. You can keep it outside even for one day without refrigeration and use it on the next day.



Okay. Now let us see how to make milagu kuzhambu/Pepper kulambu at home. Please follow the same measurements to prepare it so that you do not over or under add pepper in the kulambu. It will be tasty and at the same time healthy. My hubby does not allow me to add pepper in Rava dosa itself as it is hot. He was hesitating to try this kulambu. After my compulsion he had it. He liked it and had for both lunch and dinner:)
