Kollu Kadayal / Masiyal is an authentic dish from Kongunadu (Coimbatore region of Tamilnadu) cuisine. Kollu Masiyal is nothing but horsegram mashed with aromatic spices. It is very healthy, protein rich legume recipe that goes well with rice.
During my U.G study in Coimbatore, I had several opportunities to taste authentic kongu cuisine through my friends and this recipe is one among them. Soon I will update Arisi Paruppu Sadam and Pallipalayam Chicken recipes that I learnt from my friends.
Stay tuned!
I have posted many horsegram recipes, do check the post and give your feedback.
