This recipe I learned from my sister-in-laws mother-in-law [Jaya patti]. Recently I was in Chennai [last week] it was very tasty. So I thought I will share with u all.
Ingredients :
- Basan - 1 cup
- Red tomato - 4 [Grind into a smooth paste]
- Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
- Dhaniya-jeera powder - 1 tsp
- Red chillie powder - 1 1/2 tsp
- Salt - As per taste
- Water - As required
- Drumstick - 2 [Cut into 1/2 inch pieces]
Method:
Boil the drumstick separately, adding little salt & turmeric powder (make 1 whistle in cooker) & keep aside. Take one deep kadai, fry the basan till it changes into red colour & nice aroma comes. When the basan becomes cool as per room temeperature, add the required water, dhaniya-jeera powder, red chillie powder, salt, little sugar & stir continously till the raw smell goes [10-15 minutes]. Then add the tomoto purie & allow to boil for 10 minutes more. In the meantime, add the boiled drumstick to that. When the kadi gets ready, garnish with chopped coriander leaves. Serve hot with steamed rice, pongal or roti.
an excellent dish very easy to make and presented in a nice manner thanks.
