Papad Cooked in Curd Gravy

Posted by Priyanka | Labels: , , , ,

 Hii people!!

Yeah I know its been quite a time i posted any recipe from my mumma's kitchen but that doesn't mean i had stopped experimenting with the food.. and I promise now will be more regular in sharing my successful (tests) tastes with you all... Today I am sharing papad cooked in curd gravy,  which turned out really yummy...so lets get started.

Ingredients:-

  • Papad- 4
  • Onion chopped- 1
  • Garlic paste- 1/2 teaspoon
  • Tomato puree- 2 table spoon
  • Curd- 1 cup
  • Green chilly- 2 finely chopped
  • Fresh Coriander- finely chopped
  • Asafoetida (Heeng)- 2 -3 pinch
  • Turmeric powder- 1/2 teaspoon
  • Red chilly powder- 1/2 teaspoon
  • Oil- 2 tablespoon
  • Salt according to taste

The Making

Take a pan and  heat the oil  and add heeng, stir a bit then add garlic. We need to just get the golden color & we will add chopped onions  and let it soften and turn translucent. Once the onions look soft add chopped tomatoes or tomato puree as per availability and keep stirring. You may add salt here to catalyze the cooking of tomatoes. In the meantime we will soak our papad in water so we can soften them a bit. Just for a minute with only this much water that they are dipped in it. Once the tomatoes are soft we need to cook this masala till the time it starts leaving oil from sides. Add curd and keep stirring. Curd will provide a very good texture to your gravy and enhances the taste. Add turmeric and red chilly powder and mix in the gravy. Add a bit of water so that the gravy remains consistent. Take the soaked papad out and you will be able to tear it with your hands roughly. Add them to gravy and mix so that they wrapped in the gravy. Cook for a minute on slow flame and then garnish it with chopped green chillies and coriander. It will give you a break from daily dal and regular vegetable curries. Have it with Chapati. 

 Pls do try and share your feedback.

Mumma's Cooking Creativity

Posted by Priyanka | Labels:

Hello there!!

The recipes on this blog are straight from my mumma's kitchen. She is a great cook and loves to experiment in her kitchen. Recipes like 'Sweet chutney of raw mango' , 'Mango pulp ice-cream', 'Smoking curd'  are some of her successful experiments which clearly shows her extra ordinary creativity. This blog is for all those naive cooks who want to learn cooking and surprise their loved-ones with some not-so-common dishes.

The idea of making this blog was of my brother Vipul, who after gifting his taste buds to one of her dish, couldn't resist to say,"My to-be-wife need to learn all this art  and so, let's make a blog where we can publish all these recipes". Everyone (read 'to-be wife') will have access to the recipes and can learn them easily.




And hence, here's a blog which will capture all the Indian dishes, made in a unique way, which will just melt in your mouth. Try out some for yourself and indulge into something really yummy.
