Sweet Potato is Sakkaravalli kizhangu in Tamil and the season has begun. Sweet Potato is known as Sakkaravalli kizhangu in Tamil. Sakkaravalli kizhangu is my hubby’s favourite vegetable. He likes it because it has rich fibre content and more medicinal properties. Already I have used sakkaravalli kizhangu in pongal kulambu and mandi. I always make poriyal in it. I decided to make various recipes in sakkaravalli kizhangu. So I googled to got a recipe in Sharmi’s passion. I tried it. It came out well. I served with Mor Kulambu and rice.
