  • Fried buttermilk adds protein to your diet, and color and taste to your plate. It is a South Indian favorite that we enjoyed at Green Palm Homes. Serve over rice.

  • Tamarind, ginger, and coconut grow throughout Kerala and so it is not surprising that someone thought to put them together in a chutney. When you taste it, you’ll believe that cooking axiom: what grows together, goes together. Pairs especially well with fish, but you’ll be pulling out this slightly addictive zingy-sweet-sour condiment as your heart desires. Anna Zacharria’s Tamarind, Ginger, Coconut Chutney recipe up on the blog now.

  • Anna Zacharria’s Cabbage Thoran is one of our favourite South Indian dishes for its delicious combination of local flavours. Thorans are quick stir fries made with finely chopped vegetables, grated coconut, curry leaves and spices. This one features cabbage but you can also use carrots, beets or green beans.

  • Anna Zacharria’s Kerala Fish Fry! Pomfret is the most common fish in a Keralan fish fry. Its flesh is white and delicate in both texture and flavor, making it an ideal complement to a tasty masala. This fish fry masala may be multiplied many fold and then kept in the refrigerator for future use. Just add a little water and stir if it becomes firm.

  • As we continue to explore the delicacies of Anna Zachariah’s kitchen, may we present the Tomato Onion Lunch Salad! This light salad livens a plate of curry and rice you serve it with. Adding a few other vegetables also creates a versatile dinner side dish.
