Easiest Vegan Curry, Tricolor Poriyal, Poduthuval
This Poriyal or Poduthuval in Tricolor is indeed the Easiest Vegan Curry since it takes just a few minutes to prep and exactly 6 minutes to cook.Today being Independence Day, I have used vegetables which represent the tricolor of the Indian Flag.This uses very light spices and hence brings out the true flavors of vegetables.
