Maravalli Kizhangu Stir Fry/ Tapioca Stir Fry/ Kappa Masala (VIDEO)

Tapioca masala is a healthy snack to have during tea time. Tapioca is packed with fiber. It is a starchy food so it is not diet-friendly. It is very famous in Kerala. In Kerala, they serve this tapioca masala along with fish curry. They both go well together. I like to make this whenever I make fish curry. We get maravalli kizhangu masala on the roadsides. It reminds me of my hometown. You can eat this tapioca fry as a snack or can serve it with fish curry.
