Best recipe


Chef comments: I like the recipe as Yashoda Rajan had tried to use an ingredient like karela which is not very popular and used it extremely creatively. My compliments to her for her recipe. Happy cooking!!!

Ingredients

Karela: 250 gms

Jaggery: 50 gms

Tamarind juice: 4 tbsps

Salt to taste

Curd: 3 tbsps

Turmeric powder: 1/2 tsps

Oil: 3 tbsps

Mustard seeds: 1/2 tsps

For masala powder:

Split black gram: 3 tsps

Red chillies: 3 (If badagi red chilli is available 5)

Til: 1tsp

Curry leaves

Method

Wash karela, cut it length wise and remove the seeds. Grate it and add 1tsp of salt, curd and turmeric powder. Mix well and keep the mixture aside for 30 minutes. Squeeze the mixture and remove water. For masala powder: First roast all the ingredients mentioned above except til which should be roasted seperately. Mix both and make powder.

Heat oil in a kadai , add mustard seeds and when the seeds start popping, add the karela mixture and fry until it turns golden brown.

Add tamarind juice, jaggery and salt and boil it in low flame for 3 minutes. Add the masala powder mix and mix well. Boil it until the gojju thickens.

Serve with chapati, dosa, roti and rice.
