South Indian cuisine is the fastest spreading/adapted cuisine all over the world. And those who have been following me from some time must be aware of my love for South Indian food. You can call me an epitome of south Indian food lover. Today I’m sharing one of my most favorite sides that is specially served during Onam and has a significant place in Onam Sadhya. Pineapple Pachadi, soft pineapple chunks cooked with yogurt and flavored with South Indian spices is a quintessential side dish from Kerala. Check out the amazing recipe and yes I’ve tried to keep it as simple I could because recipe shouldn’t sound too elaborate as I want all my readers to get some easy delectable recipes. So next time when you want to make some fruity side dish to impress your family and guests, try making this flavorful Pineapple Pachadi and thank me later 😂  Don’t forget to share your experience with me in comments below and I would love to see some more variations from your end.

To make this absolutely mouth watering Pineapple Pachadi all you need to do is  In a grinder add coconut, green chili, cumin and mustard seeds. Grind to make a fine paste and keep aside. Heat a non stick pan and add pineapple chunks along with sugar or jaggery. Stir and saute for a minute. Add water, stir again and close lid to cook till pineapple softens. Now add turmeric powder, mix well and turn off the flames. Whisk the curd or yogurt to break lumps. Keep it thick, do not add water. Pour in the whisked yogurt to the cooked pineapple and combine. Add salt to taste and keep aside. Now heat oil in another pan and temper with mustard seeds, curry leaves and broken red chili. When the tempering begins to crackle, turn off the gas flames and pour on the pineapple yogurt mix. Your Pineapple Pachadi is ready to serve.
