Kanda bachali curry

Well, Today I tried a new item which came out well..So thought of sharing it

We usually h've vegetable market twice in a week only in the evening time.. since some time, we thought of getting bachalakura but unable to find it in korba..One problem is to find out what bachalakura is called
in hindi..Yesday, we found it may be coz we went to the market early...Unable to name it, I asked the lady "ye kaisey dey rahe ho" showing bachala kura.. Kanda (called kand in hindi) is pretty easily available here..!!

Today after I got ready, ringed to my mother-in -law... got to know how to prepare "kanda bachali" curry..I would now let u people know how to prepare it..

Ingredients

Kanda (1/4 kg)
Bachali kura (1/4 kg)
Mustard (3 tsp)
Red chilli (2 to 3)
Chana dal(senagapappu)---1 tsp
Urad dal (Minapappu)----1 tsp
Curry leaves----10-15 leaves
Oil---for seasoning( approx 3tsp)
Tamarind (little bit for sourness)
Water (3 cups)
 Turmeric (1 tsp)
Salt (According to your taste)


1.Chop Kanda and bachali kura into small pieces

2. Add tamarind juice,Turmeric and salt in a bowl of water; Add kanda and bachalikura to them and boil for 10 to 15 min; Remove the excess water.. it looks something like this after it gets cooked...I separated kanda and bachali for your understanding


3. Grind Mustard and red chilli(need not fry the both) with litle water in Mixie to make paste of pouring consistency

4. heat the oil in a kadai,add urad dal,chanadal and curry leaves,hing(optional) to oil (popu veyadam); Then add the boiled kanda bachali to this and fry them for 2 min

5. Add  the prepared paste(mustard and chilli paste) to this mixture and mix well to obtain equilibruim


Thats it... Kanda bachali curry is ready...Should take 20-30 min... Since this isn't a regular curry, should taste gud when prepared occasionally
