Mullangi Kulambu / Radish Gravy is simple and tasty curry. It makes for a delectable accompaniment with steamed rice, idli, dosa and paniyaram varieties. Radishes are very low-calorie root vegetables and have been effective when used as a medicinal food for liver disorders.

# Traditionally white radishes are used, but I have used red baby radish which is equally great.
# The masala paste should be finely ground.
# Shallots suits best for this gravy. Instead of 1Big onion, you can use 1-15 shallots depending on the size.
