Kerala Style Egg Roast Those majestic high mountains of the Western Ghats on East ,the blue Arabian sea on west makes Kerala truly God’s own country ,the beauty is untouched here.
I have many memories attached to this state during my trips to Wayanad, Kollam ,Varkala etc. The very first time I tried Kerala food prepared with coconut oil at that homestay in Wayanad . After that I regularly use coconut oil which has similar benefits as in Olive oil. Sadly people in India are more fascinated to Olive oil these days ignoring our own super-oil.
Do you know 91% of the fat in coconut oil is healthy saturated fat .Not only cooking this oil is great for baking too , enhancing your favorite cake or cookies.
Today I am sharing a popular Kerala dish “Nadan Mutta Roast” which means Egg roast. It’s a common sight to find Kerala people enjoying this dish with appam (fermented rice pancakes) or Malabar Parotta in their breakfast .
