Ok... Coming to this yummy recipe,which is similar to tamil nadu's  " Arachivitta kuzhambu". Is a Kerala  recipe. I happened to see this in some tv channel( not sur if it's tamil or Malayalam) long back.i was actually attracted to its name" Theeyal".I think they used brinjal in that show but since I had only cheppankizhangu at that time, I used it and since then have been using this for Theeyal .we love it some much that I make this almost every week.we use this as side dish for chapathi.
