Now this is one of those adapted cuisine things. Not really a traditional Tamil dish - I strongly suspect this has some sort of a Mumbai connection or perhaps a Gujarati or Andhra connection. But this is a great accompaniment to curd rice or dosai or chappati or puri. It is a great idea to carry on those train trips so much part of an earlier generation.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- Raw tomato (quantity, depends - half a kilo or a kilo) - sliced into 1/4th, cut with the stalk part removed (whatever you call it in English)
- Til oil - heat
- Add mustard, udad dal, methi seeds, red chillies
- To this add the tomato, salt (two spoons) jaggery and fry till the tomato loses resemblance of tomatoes and becomes like a pickle (this might seem funny, but it does become like that)
- Add a little chilli powder to to taste
