Delicious side dish which suits prefectly for rotis as well as gravy for rice, i prepared this kurma as Nilgiri kurma using spice paste prepared with mint leaves, coriander leaves, green chillies,coconut and poppyseeds..This kurma looks green in colour and tastes truly tremendous when they served with anything, u can make this kurma either with mixed veggies or with chicken or else with lamb, but i went for a simple version using potatoes..Its seems this recipe is originated from the Nilgiri tribes who make their dishes using fresh green herbs from the hills..Most of us know about Nilgiri hills, they are well known for their greeneries, fresh herbs and for their mountains..This kurma will be super spicy and hot, they goes prefect along with naan,parottas and chappathis..
