Aattu Kudal Varatiyathu ( Goat intestine / Boti )

Aattu kudal varatiyathu is a traditional recipe of tamil nadu. This is one of my mom's best signature dish and this is prepared right in her kitchen. My mom really love it so much, but yet some p[eople have a dislike over this yummy curry. If you ask me if its prepared in the correct way then it will not have any smell and that's the main for dislike I guess. 

And if you tasyte the curry once sure you are going to love it like I do. This pair fantastic with plain white rice / Idli / Dosa. And this goat intestine is the best remedy for mouth alcer. Whenever I got those irritating sores then my mom used to make this recipe.. And after having this curry I really feel better. When i was small whenever my grandpa buy this goat intestine its very huge work for my mom to clean those intestines... But now a days my hubby do these works for me.. and he thoroughly cleaned and chopped like mutton.. 

So I never have to bother about cleaning anymore.Then cleaning under normal water like any other meat is enough. Always make sure the intestine is cleaned properly before proceeding to cook.
