dates inji puli recipe

Dates Inji puli recipe | Puli Inji curry with dates that’s a slightly different dish from that of a normal inji puli in sadhya. Not only that we have replaced the jaggery entirely with dates, but the taste is also too good.

When I last posted the Thrissur style inji puli a year back, I had in mind to find an alternative to replace jaggery in the recipe. Also, I had the box full of dates thats not touched by anybody in my house. That’s how I planned to use up those in inji puli.
