Pradosh Koottu

Pradosh Koottu

  
Embodiments of Love!

Soak channa dal for 8 hours;then cook in a cooker finely;
Steam cauli flower (1/2 will do); then cut it into pieces;
Cut one simla mirchi into small pieces; also cut 3 to 4 tomatoes finely;
place a kadai ( flat vessel for frying) on the stove; add sesame oil; then mustard and urud dal; after the popping up and reddening of dal add mirchi and tomato pieces and cook with minimal water; while it starts boiling add the steamed and cut cauli flower.
Cook well; 
Smash the cooked channa dal; add this to the above mixture still on the stove; mix thoroughly; add coriander leaves and curry leaves; serve hot

Note: 10th Jan 2017 was Pradhosham day; Santha is attending exam; so I and Gayathri needed something for dinner and onion was to be avoided; Santha used to prepare the best side dishes with or without onion/potato  base; to make a consistency of side dish compatible to Roti/ chapati i was forced to think a base and the above technique worked; since it was created on a pradosh day i named it as " Pradosh Koottu

You can also try and get the blessings of Siva
