Karkkidakam, known as the monsoon month in the traditional Malayalam calendar, was once called the lean month in olden times. Continuous rains, flooded fields, and limited food supplies made life challenging for our ancestors.

Yet, this was also the time when traditional wisdom guided everyday cooking — especially in Kannur households. The curries prepared during Karkkidakam were not just meals; they were a form of natural medicine. Using locally available ingredients like Cucumber, Pumkin tapioca, yam, drumstick leaves, wild greens, pepper, cumin, garlic, and medicinal herbs from the backyard, families cooked simple yet nourishing dishes.

These traditional Kannur curries were designed to strengthen immunity, improve digestion, and protect the body during the harsh monsoon season. Slow-cooked, mildly spiced, and deeply rooted in local knowledge, each curry carried the essence of survival, health, and heritage.

Through this vlog, let us travel back in time and rediscover one humble, healing curries of Kannur during the Karkkidakam month which is called Karingalan.”
