However my better half was like, "You should try to make some Gongurapachadi for me. If there is any edible leaf that indeed challenged my culinary knowledge ,that ought to be "Gongura leaves"
Gongurapachadi or gongura pickle is widely made pickle all across andhra pradesh mainly across the andhra region… It is eaten as a side dish with roti or rice
Gongura rice with vadavam something I can have every day. Even though we can get gongura leaves in Singapore nothing beats the taste of what we get back home (backyard of my grandmother house)
Coming to todays recipe, this is my grandmother preferred version of GonguraPachadi. Today, I prepared this pachdi with dry red chillies and with red stemmed gongura
the name itself reminds a Place Guntur, as it is widely popular as 'Guntur GonguraPachadi'. Gongura. There are few recipes that you can make with Gongura, like Gongura Pappu, Gongura Pulusu, Gongura Roti Pachadi etc but out of all Pulihora Gongura version (Gongura Pickle with Red Chilies ) is very famous and popular in Andhra
However, nothing defines Andhra food the way GonguraPachadi does. Andhras love Gongura or Ambadi. In fact, GonguraPachadi is the first thing that comes to mind when you say Andhra food
Transfer the seasoning into the chutney and savor the delicious GonguraPachadi. Grind the coriander seeds, sesame seeds and red chillies into a fine powder and add the gongura leaves to the mix to make a semi-fine paste
Happy now that I am back to my blog introducing a variety recipe Gongura Puvvla Pachadi. The below picture of the Gongura Flowers is from my terrace garden
Gongura Chicken Recipe is an amazing combination of gongura leaves or sorrel leaves with chicken and is a special andhra style recipe which is made commonly in the andhra region of south india
