Finely chopped green chillies- 1 tsp
Ginger paste- 1/2 tsp
Garlic paste- 1/2 tsp

Chopped coriander leaves- 1 tbsp
Gram dal powder- 2 tbsp
Turmeric powder- 1/2 tsp

For the gravy:

Soya sauce- 2tsp
Chilli sauce- 2 tsp
Crushed tomato- 1 cup
Ginger paste- 1/2 tsp
Garlic paste- 1/2 tsp
Turmeric powder- 1/2 tsp
Tomato ketchup- 1 tsp
Coarse pepper powder- 1 tsp
Chopped spring onions- 1 cup
Finely Chopped capsicum- 1 tbsp

Procedure:

Steam the raw bananas for 15 minutes. Then mash it. Heat a pan and pour 2 tbsp of oil. Add the chopped onion and fry for a few minutes till it turns light brown. Add the green chillies with the pastes and the greens. Fry for a few seconds. Then add the mashed banana with enough salt and the turmeric powder and cook for a few minutes. Put off the fire. Mix the dal powder with the cooked mixture. Make small balls out of the mixture and deep fry the balls to a golden brown colour. Again heat a pan and pour 2 tbsps of oil. Add the tomato with the pastes and the turmeric powder and fry for a few minutes till they cook well and the oil floats on the surface. Add the spring onion, capsicum, sauces and the ketchup and fry for a few seconds. Pour the corn flour mixture and let it simmer. Add all the balls and cook in slow fire.

HEllo Mrs. MAno.

Am visiting the hub after a loooong time. Hope you are doing well. Very tied up since the baby arrived.

Anyways, Made your biryani 1 which was again well recieved and also the mutton voor kuzhambu to go with that. It went well with the biryani as well as with parathas at night. Only thing was that it seemed to lack a little something and so I added some imli juice for some tang. I don't know whether it was missed out in the original recipe. Anyways, post adding imli the kuzhambu was also very very tasty.

Thanks,

Thattai
