Did you know? This rich Kerala curry showcases the state's famed cashew plantations. The cashew butter base creates a luxurious texture without cream. The spice blend typically includes star anise and mace for complexity. Some versions use coconut milk for extra creaminess. The dish pairs perfectly with appams or idiyappam. During Onam feasts, it's served in small portions due to its richness. The slow roasting of cashews is key to developing depth of flavor.
