    Vazhakka, eventhough it has very plain taste, its my mooooooost favorite veggie. When it comes to spicy vazhakka fry, OMG ! I can die for it all. In that way, this is my very recent learnt recipe which i got it from my friend. She prepared this for her lunch and asked my taste it. OMG ! I was totally fallen in love and at the same time, i thought of preparing it by the same day. Immediately i searched my fridge for this veggie. Luckily, i found one and tried it and here for your views as well.
