Potols Vepudu - Parval Fry - పరవళ్ వేపుడు - Andhra Recipes Telugu Vantalu -గాయత్రి వంటిల్లు

Method:

Wash and clean potols. Pat dry them with a dry cloth. Cut the ends. Cut each potol into two length wise. Heat a pan and add oil to it. When the oil is hot drop these potols pieces into it and fry on medium heat. Do not fry on high flame. Fry them till you get nice golden color on the white part of the vegetable. Then remove them on to a paper napkin or a news paper to absorb extra oil. Now fry the curry leaves till crisp in the same oil and drain them on to a paper napkin or on a newspaper to remove excess oil. Now crush the fried curry leaves and mix with the vepudu karam. Add salt to taste and mix again. Now our stuffing is ready. Stuff this mixture by pressing a bit, so that the flavors get mixed with the vegetable. Arrange these tasty stuffed potols in a plate and serve with hot rice.

Point To Be Noted:

Do not hesitate to use a newspaper or a paper napkin to remove excess oil. Instead of consuming and suffering it is better to throw away that extra oil this way. Oil is the main thing which needs to be put under control. Obesity, Cholesterol, heart blockages etc… can be controlled by using less oil. But our tongue craves for more fried foods. Do not stop it but control it. So eat fried items less and have good health.
