Pulihora Andhra Tamarind Rice

Sailu's Kitchen
Like

Deepavali lit up the kitchen with fun, laughter and culinary conversations. Our family whipped up an
elaborate vegetarian meal which included Pulihora, a traditional favorite among South Indians, an
unassuming tangy rice dish speckled with spices, roasted peanuts and aromatic curry leaves. The aroma of
Pulihora preparation is enticing that brings nostalgic memories of my grandmothers kitchen. Isnt there
something about smells and tastes that trigger our moods and take us down memory lane?

Pulihora ~ Andhra Tamarind Rice

Never miss a new recipe!

One popular version of Andhra style preparation that is absolutely loved at home involves the use of roasted
sesame seeds powder. The moment it touches your tongue, you are hit with addictive flavors that make you
crave for more. To savor the true taste of traditional recipes like Pulihora, its advisable to prepare from
scratch and resist the temptation to follow the easy route of MTR Pulihora instant mix. Yes, even though
instant mixes make our life convenient, store bought mixes lack the authentic home made flavors and aromas.
Wouldnt you agree?

1 Sprinkle turmeric pwd, salt, a tbsp of oil and few fresh curry leaves to the cooked and cooled rice and
keep aside.
2 Heat the remaining oil in a cooking vessel, add the mustard seeds and let them splutter. Add dry red
chillis, cumin seeds, channa dal, urad dal and fry for a minute till light brown. Next add the slit green chillis,
ginger, asafoetida and few curry leaves and fry for a few seconds.
2 Add the tamarind extract and jaggery and cook till the raw smell of tamarind disappears, approx 5-7 mts.
It will be a like a thick but flowing paste. Remove from heat.
3 Add the cooked tamarind mix and combine well such that its spread all over the rice. Adjust salt. Finally
sprinkle the roasted sesame seeds pwd and roasted peanuts and combine well. Let it sit for at least 3-4
hours for the flavors to set in.
4 Serve with appadam/chips, majjiga mirapakaayalu (sun dried chillis) and yogurt. Makes a complete
meal.
Note:
Pulihora tastes best after sitting for a couple of hours from the time of
preparation. Another version is to replace sesame seeds pwd with a tsp of
black mustard seeds pwd (ava podi or paste).
