Aviri Kudumulu Recipe in Telangana Style with Kandi ginjalu (Pigeon peas)

Generally the commonly used beans are Hyacinth beans (Anapakaya in Telugu or Avarekalu in Kannada) which is quite popular in Telangana region of India.


These beans are usually available during winters. It is a very nutritious and healthy breakfast recipe or any past time snack. The procedure is also very simple and easy as very few ingredients go into its making. Previously I have made kudumulu recipe with Anapa ginjalu and this is my favourite one. Kandi ginjala Kudumulu or Thuvaram Payiru Kozhukattai also taste similar. 

Usually these aaviri kudumulu will be served with oil, If you don't like oil as the dip then you can have these as it is. They taste heavenly and also steamed delicacies are good for people on diet as these have very little calories and beans add a great nutritious quotient. 

Hyacinth beans and Pigeon peas are usually available during winters only. But you can try with broad beans (Chikkudu ginjalu in Telugu) also as these are available through out the year and in winter season and kandi ginjalu and anapa ginjalu are easily available in the markets.
