Andhra Style Onion Stew | Ullipaaya Pulusu | How to Make Ullipaya Pulusu

Nothing to beat the authentic taste of this Andhra style Onion stew. It has a mixed taste of Sour, Sweet and Spice.

This stew tastes good along with hot Rice. It is well appreciated by the people of Southern India, especially Telugu people who make it more sour than the usual stew. It is made in different methods in different regions. I explained the recipe for the Chettinadu Style Onion stew in my previous video. It has an authentic taste and fragrance of coconut and Fennel seeds.

Andhra style stew is more diluted and is sweet and sour.It is a common dish in every household and is perfect for lunch boxes also.

Tips

Onions:

  1. Sambar Onions and ordinary Onions used together will give a better taste. If you don't find Sambar Onions you can use only the ordinary Onions.

Other Tips:

  1. This stew needs a proportionate amount of chilli,salt and jaggery to get the perfect taste.You can avoid Jaggery if you don't like sweetness. Adjust the chilli accordingly 2.The more it is cooked on a low flame the better the taste
  2. I used Rice flour to get a thick consistency,you can use Bengal gram flour without lumps.
  3. Fenugreek should be roasted properly,so that the stew will not become bitter while boiling in the stew.
