PINEAPPLE PULISERRY

Pulissery is a traditional Kerala dish made using yogurt and grated coconut.Pineapple pulissery is one among the dish in Kanyakumari wedding feast.

*Pineapple which I had used in this recipe is very sweetened so I didn't use sugar for sweetness.If the pineapple is sour add some sugar to balance the taste.

*Use thick curd,beat well without adding water before adding it to pulissery.

*After adding it to pulissery don't let to boil.
