vendakkai kulambu is a spicy tangy curry with coconut and tamarind. The time you want to eat spicy curry for rice/ dosas/ idlis, this curry will be a good option. There is also another similar method without adding coconut. But I prefer the curry with coconut, which makes it thicker and also will give a good quantity.
Let us see how to make vendakkai kulambu
