Mullangi curry recipe | mullangi fry | radish stir fry

By swasthi , on December 12, 2019, 23 Comments, Jump to Recipe

Mullangi curry or radish stir fry recipe – Radish is known as mullangi in south Indian languages and is used to make sambar, stir fry and chutneys. It is one of the healthiest vegetables and should be included in our diet regularly. Mullangi is good for people suffering with blood pressure and diabetes.

mullangi stir fry

I don’t cook often with radish as I run out of ideas. My kids are a bit fussy with them.

All I make is this mullangi curry, salad and some times chutney. This dish is made just by stir fry method and is cooked to the minimum. Hence it is a healthy way of preparing radish.

This dry mullangi curry can be served with rice or phulka and makes a good choice for lunch box as well.

Coconut, sesame seeds, coarsely crushed roasted peanuts can be sprinkled towards the end if they fit into your diet. If you are new to radish here are few tips that may help you.

Tips

  • Always choose young radish. The mature ones sometimes lend a bitter taste once they are cooked.
  • If you do not like the flavor of this veggie, then simply add some salt to the grated or fine chopped veggie. Toss and set the bowl aside. After 30 mins, squeeze and extract the juice. Discard this and use the rest to cook. This is not a healthy way but makes it taste better.
  • You can also make this with some soaked moong dal. Temper the soaked moong dal and cook in just little water until soft. The dal should not be mushy and hold shape with no moisture in the pan. At this stage, add the radish and stir fry. Spice up with green chilli.

    Hi Swasthi

    The recipes are simple and easy to cook for a beginner like me.
    I have never cooked before but wanted to learn cooking. I have followed your instructions and have managed to cook panner makhani, panner Butter masala, palak panner, butter kulcha, bitter gourd palya and raddish palya. To my surprise everything that cooked had come out well. Big thanks to your recipes.
    The picture description makes it even more easier to cook.

    Lets me know if there is an app that can be downloaded.
