Carrot and Asparagus Poriyal
One of those weeks, where spring is trying to make up its mind whether it is really or truly here. Spring is about colors and Asparagus. To celebrate the happy marriage of both, I offer you this asparagus and carrot poriyal. One of many springtime offerings that can grace any table, lending flavor and vibrance.
The Story of Asparagus and Carrot Poriyal
I celebrated the joys of this beautiful Easter Weekend with friends and Devilled Eggs. My way of course! The garden is fully awake. With the crocuses all out right alongside the daffodils which were in play. These flowers are recovering of course from the weird snow we had just a few days ago. Yes, the weekend was pure perfection and I cooked up a simple stir fry with asparagus and carrots. People often forget that carrots are in fact spring vegetables.
It has been also been a busy week at work and yet I have been thinking fifty miles a minute about different stuff. Mostly, triggered by a discussion on feminism. In a world where we have instances where an “educated” man can beat his girlfriend, I am not sure what this term can mean anymore. I can pontificate forever, but, at the end of the day I just hope that I am raising my two young ones with parity.
Cabbage and Asparagus and Other Poriyals
I love making stir fries with simple fresh vegetables. I have told you a lot about the concept in this post for Beetroot Poriyal. The concept and idea is the same. Poriyals are finished with freshly grated coconut. I sometimes finish with crushed almonds if I do not have coconut handy.
How to Enjoy the Asparagus and Carrot Poriyal
A poriyal is a great side dish that can be a side to any meal, Indian or otherwise. I like to serve it with other South Indian offerings such as Tomato Rice, Sambhar and or Coconut Chutney.
