Muringakka Manga Curry/ Drumstick Mango Curry


Muringakka Mango Curry/ Drumstick Mango Curry

Today's recipe is a simple and quick side dish for rice. This is a coconut based tangy curry with the combined flavors of drumsticks and mangoes. My mother makes this curry whenever drumsticks and mangoes are in season.This is a common curry base with local flavors and you can choose between a variety of ingredients and combinations to make it unique.You can add those available like mangoes, jack fruit seeds/chakka kuru, tomatoes, plantain, drumsticks and also make it non- vegetarian by adding prawns fresh or dried (unakka chemmeen).

Ingredients
Drumsticks-3
Green Mango- 1
Shallots- 5-6
Ginger- 1 inch thick
Garlic-2 pods
Cumin seeds- 1/3 tsp
Green chilly- 4
Coconut-1 cup
Turmeric powder- 1/3 tsp
Chilly powder- 1/2 tsp

Mustard seeds- 1/2 tsp
Dry red chilly -2
Curry leaves- 1 spring

Gently peel or scrape off the green part and cut drumstick into three inch pieces. Peel off skin and cut mangoes into cubes. Add one cup of water , green chilly, turmeric powder, chilly powder and salt and cook the drumstick and mangoes till it is done. Make a paste of coconut, shallots, ginger and garlic. Add this to the cooked vegetables and mix in. Adjust consistency by adding a little water. Allow this to simmer in low flame for about two minute. Do not allow this to boil. In a separate pan heat oil and add mustard seeds. When they splutter add curry leaves and dry red chilly and fry. Pour this over the curry and mix. Serve with rice.

Try this..
Hope you will all enjoy

    Delicious. Looks creamy and I think that is because of added coconut.

    ഒരു നട്ടുച്ച നേരത്ത് വശന്നിരിക്കുമ്പോഴാണ് ഈ വിഭവം കാണുന്നത് ഹൃദയം തകര്‍ന്നു പോയി. കാരണം, കമ്പനിയുടെ രുചി കെട്ട കറി കൂട്ടി ചോറുണ്ണാന്‍ ഏതാനും നിമിഷം കൂടിയേ ഉണ്ടായിരുന്നുള്ളൂ അപ്പോള്‍.

Uzhunnu Vada/Urad Dal Vada

Uzhunnu Vada/Urad Dal Vada Uzhunnu vada or medu vada is a very common snack in south India and is a perfect accompaniment with a cup of hot piping tea.I like it as a snack but again cannot resist when it is served with idli,sambar and chutney as breakfast. One might wonder where does all the aroma come from? The  plain deep fried lentils is by itself flavorful because I make them often for  vada curry. But in uzhunnu vada the addition of pearl onions,ginger and curry leaves imparts a wonderful aroma that is irresistible.This is something I really missed when I came here to the US until I started making my home made version. Try this you will surely love it. Ingredients Urad Dal/Black lentil skinless- 1 cup Rice flour- 2 tsp Pearl Onions- 4-5 Ginger finely chopped- 1 inch thick Curry leaves finely chopped- 1 spring Green chilly  finely chopped- 3 Whole black pepper- 5-6 salt to taste Oil- 2 cup to fry Wash and soak urad dal and rice for about 4-5...
