Instant Morkuzhambu

I saw my MIL make this one day, it is a fast and easy version of Mor Kuzhambu.

Ingredients

Vegetables - One of Green peas, carrots, okra or squash.
Buttermilk
Rice Flour
Red Chillies - 1/2 pieces.
Coconut flakes
Oil for seasoning, plus the usual mustard & asafoetida

HowTo

1) Heat the oil and add some asafoetida and mustard seeds.
2) Add the red chillies and the cut vegetables, toss them around for a while.
3) Add some water (not more than half a cup) , one tablespoon of rice flour and salt to taste. The vegetables should cook in this water, so turn to a low flame and cover.
4) Add the buttermilk right at the end, don't let the kozhambu boil for more than a couple minutes after adding the buttermilk. The coconut flakes or some coconut oil at the end gives a nice touch.
