Huruli Bassaru Palya | Stewed HorseGram Curry

Published : November 18, 2013 | Last Update on July 3, 2020 By Muktha Gopinath

Huruli Bas Saaru and Hurali Bas Palya is most popular dish around Bangalore – Mysore regions of Karnataka. This is one of the authentic recipe and very common in most of the villages . Bas or Basidu in kannada means strain the stew ,as we prepare a curry ( Saaru) out of the stew it has got the  name Bas Saaru. Generally it is served along with RagiBalls( Raggi Mudde) and Rice.

Researchers have even found that regular intake of horsegram aids in weight loss.  Horsegram curry can be done either using sprouted horse gram or regular one. You can cook horse gram  by soaking overnight or can even be cooked directly  but it takes more time. This curry is my home’s  all time favorite. Especially the sauteed Horse Gram with greens, tastes delicious.  Curry enhances in taste when you reheat and eat on following day.

Other similar Curries/ Saaru from Karnataka Cuisine are : Molake Huruali Kaalu Saaru , Masida Soppu Saaru , Obbattu/ Holige Saaru and Drumstick Sambar
