Who does not like tangy, lip-smacking kadhi? Here is a tangier, more tantalizing version made of tomato purée (instead of dahi), thickened with besan, and spiced up with an assortment of pungent ingredients.
The order of adding ingredients, and the duration of cooking, need to be maintained in order to achieve the perfect consistency. Serve hot with rice for a homely meal that never fails to delight.
Method- Combine the tomatoes and ½ cup of water in a deep non-stick pan, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 5 to 7 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
- Allow it to cool completely and blend in a mixer to a smooth purée. Keep aside.
- Heat the oil in a deep non-stick pan and add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds.
- When the seeds crackle, add the green chillies, curry leaves, cloves and besan, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes, while stirring continuously.
- Add the turmeric powder, chilli powder, asafoetida, prepared tomato purée and ½ cup of water, mix well and bring to boil, while stirring occasionally.
- Add the jaggery and salt, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 2 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
- Serve hot garnished with a sprig of coriander.
