There are varieties of Kuḻambu, such as paruppu (<a href="/wiki/Tamil_language" title="Tamil language">Tamil</a>: <span lang="ta">பருப்பு</span>, meaning dal) Kuḻambu and pattani Kuḻambu that contain lentils, but the vast majority do not use dal beyond the small quantity used as a spice or during tempering. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Preparation">Preparation</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Kuzhambu&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Preparation"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The preparation of Kuḻambu vary greatly with the type of Kuḻambu to be made, but its basic preparation methods include first tempering <a href="/wiki/Curry_leaves" class="mw-redirect" title="Curry leaves">curry leaves</a>, whole black <a href="/wiki/Mustard_seed" title="Mustard seed">mustard seeds</a>, whole <a href="/wiki/Cumin_seed" class="mw-redirect" title="Cumin seed">cumin seeds</a>, dry red <a href="/wiki/Chili_pepper" title="Chili pepper">chili pepper</a>, and often split <a href="/wiki/Urad_(bean)" class="mw-redirect" title="Urad (bean)">urad</a> <a href="/wiki/Dal" title="Dal">dal</a> over <a href="/wiki/Vegetable_oil" title="Vegetable oil">vegetable oil</a> on a heated stove. For Kuḻambu that includes vegetables, they are cut and then added to the fry, with shallots, and garlic being added first, and pureed or diced tomatoes going last. Salt and ground spices are added next (which are often pre-prepared), and finally tamarind juice (tamarind soaked in water), or tamarind concentrate and water. For meat or fish Kuḻambu vegetables are sauteed as described above, the meat or fish is then added and allowed to mix with the sauteed vegetables. Then a broth made of ground coconut, water and masala is added last. Meat Kuḻambu is usually thicker. The dish is then cooked for approximately 20 minutes and usually served with rice. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Varieties">Varieties</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Kuzhambu&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Varieties"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1237032888/mw-parser-output/.tmulti">.mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner{display:flex;flex-direction:column}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow{display:flex;flex-direction:row;clear:left;flex-wrap:wrap;width:100%;box-sizing:border-box}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle{margin:1px;float:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .theader{clear:both;font-weight:bold;text-align:center;align-self:center;background-color:transparent;width:100%}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .thumbcaption{background-color:transparent}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-left{text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-right{text-align:right}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-center{text-align:center}@media all and (max-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .tmulti .thumbinner{width:100%!important;box-sizing:border-box;max-width:none!important;align-items:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow{justify-content:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle{float:none!important;max-width:100%!important;box-sizing:border-box;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle .thumbcaption{text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow>.thumbcaption{text-align:center}}@media screen{html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner img{background-color:white}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner img{background-color:white}}</style><div class="thumb tmulti tright"><div class="thumbinner multiimageinner" style="width:204px;max-width:204px"><div class="trow"><div class="tsingle" style="width:202px;max-width:202px"><div class="thumbimage"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Buttermilk_curry_in_a_vessel.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/eb/Buttermilk_curry_in_a_vessel.jpg/200px-Buttermilk_curry_in_a_vessel.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="150" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/eb/Buttermilk_curry_in_a_vessel.jpg/300px-Buttermilk_curry_in_a_vessel.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/eb/Buttermilk_curry_in_a_vessel.jpg/400px-Buttermilk_curry_in_a_vessel.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2592" data-file-height="1940" /></a></span></div><div class="thumbcaption"><i>Mor Kuzhambu aka Buttermilk curry</i></div></div></div><div class="trow"><div class="tsingle" style="width:202px;max-width:202px"><div class="thumbimage"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Garlic_Kuzhambu.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/68/Garlic_Kuzhambu.jpg/200px-Garlic_Kuzhambu.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="175" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/68/Garlic_Kuzhambu.jpg/300px-Garlic_Kuzhambu.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/68/Garlic_Kuzhambu.jpg/400px-Garlic_Kuzhambu.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2917" data-file-height="2555" /></a></span></div><div class="thumbcaption"><i>Poondu Kuzhambu</i></div></div></div></div></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Sheela_Meen_Kuzhambu.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/67/Sheela_Meen_Kuzhambu.JPG/220px-Sheela_Meen_Kuzhambu.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/67/Sheela_Meen_Kuzhambu.JPG/330px-Sheela_Meen_Kuzhambu.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/67/Sheela_Meen_Kuzhambu.JPG/440px-Sheela_Meen_Kuzhambu.JPG 2x" data-file-width="1600" data-file-height="1200" /></a><figcaption><i>Meen Kuḻambu</i></figcaption></figure> <p>The following is a small list of the hundreds of varieties of Kuḻambu popular in <a href="/wiki/Tamil_cuisine" title="Tamil cuisine">Tamil cuisine</a>.
