Tapioca Chunks 750G

Tapioca, often referred to as "kappa" or "maravalli kizhangu" in Kerala cuisine, is a starchy tuber derived from the cassava plant. When prepared as "Tapioca Mezhukkupuratti," it involves cutting tapioca into small, bite-sized pieces and stir-frying them with a mix of spices.

To make Tapioca Mezhukkupuratti, the tapioca is peeled, washed, and then cut into small chunks. These chunks are then stir-fried with mustard seeds, curry leaves, green chilies, turmeric, and grated coconut. The stir-frying process helps to impart flavor to the tapioca while maintaining its unique starchy texture.

Tapioca Mezhukkupuratti is a simple and popular side dish in Kerala cuisine, often enjoyed with a tangy and spicy coconut chutney. This preparation showcases the versatility of tapioca in South Indian cooking, where it is appreciated for its mild taste and ability to absorb the flavors of the spices and coconut during the cooking process.
