Instructions to make Aviyal Kerala-style:
- I used the cooker here. As I don't have a big traditional kal chatti.
- First add noolkol / kohlrabi in cooker. Add 3/4 cup of water and cook covered(use a plate to cover not cooker lid) on medium flame for 5 to 7 minutes as noolkol takes time to cook.Then add carrot, yam, raw banana and potato.
- Add turmeric powder, chilli powder, curry leaves and mix well. Cook covered for 5 to 7 minutes or until vegetables are half cooked. Keep checking.
- Then add beans, avvarai, fresh green peas,raw mango and cook covered until it is cooked yet hold their shape. Take care not to cook them to a mush or over cook. If it will become mushy then aviyal will not be good.
- Meanwhile grind coconut, green chillies, jeera adding little water to a coarse paste.
- Now check the vegetables will be almost cooked.Add the grinded coconut mixture along with required salt. Without mixing cook covered(cover with plate don't use cooker lid) for 2 to 3 minutes.I added little water as I don't like too much dry aviyal.
- Mix the coconut mixture gently and remove from flame.
- In a small pan heat coconut oil and add mustard seeds and little hing. After it crackles add it to the Aviyal and mix gently.Then cover it.
- Delicious Aviyal is ready to serve.
