Chukkakura is one of my favorite greens but we don't get it here in the grocery stores. I'm growing them in a small container in my garden and will have to harvest it real soon. This is such a yummy kura with eggplant and chukkakura. Will try this combo some time.

I do not know about vankaya chukka kura combo but mutton & chukka kura is an awesome combination. I know you do not eat meats but try it for your family. They might like it.
