Spicy Version
Tapioca / Kappa curry is very popular dish in kerala,they used to serve with fish curry,which is the best combination to this curry.Tapioca provides healthy supplements to our body.I used to buy once in a month and prepared amma's mild version for our breakfast.If tapioca remains i cooked for lunch as a spicy sidedish.It keeps your stomach full for longer time.Appa takes fresh tapioca from our garden often,amma prepared mild version of tapioca curry for our evening snacks.
Tapioca / Cassava :
Tapioca is familiar with the english names cassava,tapioca plant,manioc.Originally the root vegetable name is Cassava and the starch found from that root plant is called Tapioca.But we popularly known as Cassava as Tapioca in english,Kappa in malayalam,Maravallikizhangu in tamil...Parts of the tapioca plant such as the roots,leaves are used in herbal medicines.
Mild Version
Initially i used to peel the skin by peeler but my MIL told me the right procedure when she came here.I find this is easier than that.It takes 10-15mins,but the only thing is you have to be carefull in cutting part as the tapioca is very hard.You can prepare this for your breakfast,lunch & snacks time too.After you cut the tapioca you can refrigerate pieces for 2-3days. I was so surprised,when i came to know that the Sago / Javvarisi is made from tapioca.I want to post mild version and spicy version here.
