This recipe is from a great-grandmother, who is my friend, an excellent cook, who at her age, loves cooking, though she stays alone. Not only that, though we live in a gated community, with a dining hall, on days when she doesn't like the menu, prepares some dishes and always shares with me. As, our age-old traditional recipes are getting lost, decided to get some authentic recipes from her to share with you all.
INGREDIENTS
red pumpkin 200 gm cut into little big pieces OR
you can combine a cup each of pumpkin, raw banana, yam
tuvar dal cooked 1 cup
turmeric pdr 1/2 tsp
salt to taste
TO GRIND
coconut 1/2-3/4 cup
red chilies 3-4 or as per taste
Seasoning
oil 1 tsp
mustard seeds 1 tsp
hing little
curry leaves 1 sprig, washed and chopped ( I prefer to chop the leaves or else people discard, wasting the Vitamin E from it)
coconut 2 tbsp
METHOD
whatever vegetables you chose, cut as per your wish, as basically my hubby loves the veges cut small, some prefer big, so as your family likes, add enough water to cook the veges along with turmeric powder.
Once the veges are cooked, add the cooked dal, ground coconut red chili paste, add salt, mix well, let it boil, then simmer for 3-4 minutes well
for seasoning, heat oil in a small kadai, add mustard seeds, hing, curry leaves, add coconut, fry till they're light brown, at this point it gives out a nice aroma, add, stir well, serve hot with rice, sambar/ rasam as an accompaniment. It will be thick.
