1 t/s salt
1 t/s baking soda (optional)
2 cups oil for deep frying

INSTRUCTIONS

  • First boil the potatoes till 3 whistles or until cooked in pressure cooker or microwave in oven for 15 mins or until cooked.
  • Peel their skin while they are still warm. Chop them into squares about an inch or size as you wish.
  • Take a vessel or pan, add oil. Once oil is hot add mustard seeds, cumin seed, half of curry leaves and asofoetida.
  • Once you hear the crackling sound add chopped onion, ginger, green chilies, sugar and turmeric powder.
  • Saute for a minute once onion changes color add the chopped potatoes and half of coriander leaves.
  • Add ½ cup water don’t add too much else it will get soggy. Stir all well cover with a lid. Cook for another 5 mins. Keep stirring in between.
  • Remove the lid add rest of chopped curry leaves add salt for seasoning along with amchur powder, boiled peas and anardana powder now if using. Cook for another 2 mins.
  • Switch off the gas garnish with rest of coriander leaves. Serve hot along with fried pooris.

Instruction for Pooris:

  • Combine all the ingredients except oil. Mix with your fingers it will appear as bread crumbs. Knead into a smooth dough.
  • The dough shouldn’t be too soft or firm. Wrap with a damp napkin and allow to rest for 10 mins.
  • Make 3 inch balls and roll them into 5 inch discs. Take a round cookie cutter or a steel bowl ( I used steel bowl). Press the cutter or bowl over the rolled discs.
  • Remove the shaped discs and arrange them on a plate or plastic sheet or baking paper.
  • Heat oil in a frying vessel on high heat. Once oil is hot reduce the flame to medium. Fry the puris one by one don’t clutter too many at a time.
  • Press the edges of the puri with your spatula Or slotted spoon. This will help the pooris to puff up beautifully.
  • Once they are light brown and cooked form both sides. Place them on absorbent napkins. Serve puris with aloo bhaji.

Notes

  1. Don't keep the heat too high while making bhaji else it might burn.
  2. You could add spices of your choice like amchur powder etc.
  3. While frying puris take care keep your face far and fry them safely.
  4. If making puris in advance allow them to cool and place them in a casserole Or foil. Else if you keep them out puris will start firming.
  5. For tangy taste I have added anardana, amchur powder and chat masala you could skip it if you don't like tangy taste.
  6. Also for variation you could garnish with fresh grated coconut which will give a different flavor.

Eggplants in a Tangy Tomato Gravy Recipe

Eggplants in a Tangy Tomato Gravy Recipe

www.facebook.com/sunflameindia














INGREDIENTS

500 gm, about 8 to 10 baby eggplants*
500 gm, about 4 to 5 medium sized tomatoes
2 tbsp coriander powder
1 tsp red chilli powder
2 tsp grated fresh ginger
3 tbsp oil
1 1/2 tsp salt

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Using a sharp knife, make four slits into the base of the eggplant, keeping the stems intact (you could also remove the stems). This will make sure that the gravy gets evenly coated inside the eggplants. Place the eggplants in lightly salted water. This will prevent them from turning black.
  • With the help of a knife remove the eyes of the tomatoes, cut them into quarters and blend them to a puree using a food processor or a blender.
  • In a wok or a kadhai, heat the oil over a medium flame. Add in the ginger and stir for a few seconds. Put in the tomato puree and bring to a boil. This should take about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the coriander powder, red chilli powder and salt. Mix well.
  • Put in the eggplants, cover the wok and allow them to cook in the tomato puree, stirring every 5 minutes.
  • Cook until the eggplants are done, about 15 minutes or until a fork or skewer can easily pierce through the eggplants. Depending on the water content of your tomatoes, you might have to add in a few tablespoons of water when the eggplants are cooking to prevent the entire mixture from sticking to the bottom of the wok.
  • Serve hot or warm with rice or rotis.
