Jeev Kadgi Podi (Breadfruit fritters)

Breadfruit provides high energy to those who eat it through its carbohydrate, mainly needed by the body for warmth and maintenance during daily activities. 
Breadfruit is a rich source of fiber.

This side dish is another delicacy prepared in the coastal region during summer especially on Ugadi.

Karathe Phodi (Bittergourd fritters)

'Karathe Phodi' or bittergourd fritters is one of my favourite fritters.
There is a famous saying in tulu language which says "Kanchala Etthanda, Encholu Unnoli", which means "If you have any bittergourd curry with you, you can eat a hearty meal"
Most of the bitterness of the bittergourd is removed first by peeling the skin off and then soaking it in salt water and turmeric.
