Just stir fry the veggie and sprinkle this at the end and you are done. It adds aroma and taste to the dry curry. To make a slightly gravy curry, add little water and bring it to a boil and cook until the veggies are soft cooked. Vepudu Karam is a simple spice powder that is used for vegetable stir fry recipes at my home. Actually the traditional vepudu karam from Andhra cuisine is a powder made of red chilies, garlic, mustard, cumin seeds and coriander seeds. Sometimes even methi seeds (fenugreek seeds) are added. My version of homemade Vepudu karam is entirely different from what is made using the traditional recipe. My recipe is a mixture of few dals, sesame seeds and few other basic ingredients. It is not suitable for non-veg fry.
