Tomato-onion pulikulambu

Ingredients :
Onion 1
Tomato 2(if it is small)
Tamarind : juice 2 tbs

For grinding :
Coriander Power : 2tsp
Chilly Powder : 1 1/2 tsp(Based on ur spice level)
Coconut threads : 3 tbs
Onion : 1

For Seasoning
Little hing powder
Mustard seeds : 1/2 tsp
Urad dal : 1/2 tsp
Fenugreek Seeds : 1/2tsp
Gingely oil: 1tbs(u can use any oil,but gingely oil gives a good taste)

Method :

Cut the onion for grinding into small pieces
In a pan,without oil roast the coriander powder and chilly powder in a sim state until a nice aroma comes out.(u have to take care,since the powders may burn easily)
Remove the powders.
Then in the same pan ,pour some oil and fry the onions till the raw smell of it goes out.
Now add the coconut threads and fry it until it turns light brown
Allow the mixture to cool and grind it into a smooth paste.

Cut the rest of onions into long thin strips.
Cut the tomatoes into small pieces.

Now take a pan, add gingely oil and now put all the seasonings
Now add the onions and fry till it turns golden brown.
Then add the tomatoes and fry it, until it becomes soft.
In the mean time add the tamarind juice,salt to the grinded mixture .
Now pour the grinded mixture into the pan.
Stir it once and close the lid.And keep it in a medium flame.Let it boil for sometime.
Open the lid once wen the nice smell of the pulikulambu comes out.

Note : It is a very nice kulambu.I like it very much.Hope u all will like it.I learned this frm my chitti.She used to tell that in tanjore side people used to make this type of pulikulambu only.
Kuganka,now it is ur turn to chk with the measurements.Plz give a try.
