Did you know? This Kerala sour-curry features roasted coconut paste giving a deep brown hue. Theeyal means "burnt" in Malayalam, referring to the coconut's roasting. Baby potatoes absorb the tamarind-kokum tang beautifully. Syrian Christian families serve it during Lent. The curry leaves are typically hand-picked from backyard trees. Traditionally cooked in brass uruli, it's best with red rice. Modern versions use sweet potatoes too. A monsoon comfort food.
