Kalan -Kaalan is the most popular traditional Kerala dish made of yogurt, coconut, and Nedrapazham(Kerala Banana). It is served as part of the sadya, the traditional Kerala feast. Many people prefer Elephant yam(Chena) to make Kalan dish. But I Prefer little raw and ripe Plantain.
Wash and cut the vegetables into square pieces( bite size pieces)
Grind grated coconut, cumin seeds, green chillies with little yogurt to a thick paste and keep it aside. (Note do not add water, as we are using yogurt for grinding.
Whisk yogurt nicely avoiding any lumps and keep it ready.
Now cook the plantain in water, add little turmeric and salt.(Please note that water should be just enough to cover the plantain)
Once plantain is cooked well and becomes soft, add ground paste and allow to cook for a minute.
Now you can add whisked yogurt to cooked plantain( please note reduce the flame of your stove when adding yogurt)allow to boil, stirring continuously until the gravy is thickened to a pouring consistency.
Now for seasoning; Heat coconut oil, splutter mustard seeds, curry leaves and Red Chilies .
Pour the seasoning to the Kaalan and now you can add pinch of fenugreek powder and cover the dish for 10-15 mins .Let the flavor Set.
Serve with rice along with some spicy mezhukkupuratti; as this plaintain kalan has little sweet flavors
