Vathal Kulambu, also known as Spicy Tamarind Gravy, is a traditional South Indian dish that is bursting with flavors. This tangy and spicy gravy is made without onion and garlic, making it perfect for those who prefer a satvik or Jain diet. The key ingredient in this dish is vathal, which are sun-dried vegetables or lentil dumplings. The tamarind pulp adds a sourness that balances well with the spices. This delicious gravy is typically served with steamed rice or dosa.
