This is a simple curry that goes well with chapathis.
Serves 2
Ingredients:
1 Onion thinly sliced
3 Tomatoes chopped
2 Green Chillies
1 tsp Jeera
2 Tbsp Oil
Salt
1/2 tsp Chilli powder or Sambar powder as needed
1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
A pinch of hing
1 tsp Jaggery or Sugar
Coriander leaves to garnish
Method:
Heat oil in a pan.
Add jeera and green chillies.
When jeera crackles, add onion and fry till it turns golden brown.
Add tomatoes, salt, chilli powder/sambar powder, turmeric powder, hing and cook till tomatoes turn soft and oil starts to separate.
Add jaggery or sugar. Mix well and garnish with coriander leaves.
Serve hot with chapathis!
Lovely curry.

ReplyDeleteHi
ReplyDeleteMy mother in law makes the same thing for chapathis when she is in a hurry. She doesn't add hing or sugar and instead of sambar powder she adds meat masala, but otherwise pretty much the same :-)
Cheers

ReplyDeleteI have tried many varieties of these onion tomato curries. Even though I get the expected flavor right, the sweetness in the US tomatoes over-powers other flavors.
