[tscii]My dear Suja, here is the channa potato subji you asked for.
Thanks, Kugan98
CHANNA POTATO SUBJI
Ingredients:
1 cup boiled channa (keep the water)
2 potatos, boil and mash the potato coarsely
1 cup of tomato, blanched and mashed
1 tsp tamarind paste
½ tsp ajwain
1 tsp finely chopped ginger
2 tsp oil
Salt to taste
Little coriander leaves chopped
To Grind:
2 tsp chillie powder
1 tsp coriander powder
½ tsp cumin powder
½ tsp pepper corns
1 tsp poppy seeds
2 cloves
2 cardamoms
1 small cinnamom stick
1 tbs coconut (optional)
Method:
Heat oil in a wok, add in the chopped ginger.
Sauté and add in ground paste.
Sauté well till the raw smell goes.
Add in the mashed tomatoes, tamarind paste and the ajwain.
Mix well, now add in little water in which the channa was boiled.
Let it boil once nicely, add in the channa and the potatoes.
Add in the salt. Boil till thick if you want a thick subji.
Or remove it with little gravy.
Garnish with the cut coriander leaves.
Note:
Many people just use garam masala powder, or
They use specially prepared channa masala powder.
I will post the method to make channa masala powder.
If only doing with channa, you have to make a little paste
with about 1 tbs of the boiled channa. Since adding potatoes, it is not necessary.
