Kalan Paste

Embrandiris Instant Kalan paste is traditionally made using hand-churned curd and freshly ground pepper. It is an essential component in every traditional Kerala Sadhya, and its preparation is simplified using Embrandiris Kalan paste. To prepare 500 gms of Kalan, blend 200 gms of grated coconut with 1 teaspoon of cumin and 2-3 green chilies into a smooth mixture. Then, combine it with 200 gms of Embrandiris Kalan paste, let it simmer, and finally garnish with tempered curry leaves, mustard, red chilies, and coconut oil. This versatile paste not only serves for preparing Kalan but also aids in preparing various traditional South Indian dishes like Moru Kootan, Pulissery, Rasakalan, and North Indian curries such as Kadhi.
