SPROUTED BEAN CURRY/ KIRLAYILE BAGDE AMBAT !!!!!!


This is a yummilicious konkani cuisine & one of my favourate too. I agree it takes time to remove skin of sprouted bean but the final product is amazing. You can add 15 cashew nuts soaked in water or tender cashewnut too to the curry. It will enhance the taste of the curry but i forgot to add.We call it MAGGE in konkani & SOUTHEKAAYI in kannada. & onion tadka gives just awesome flavour & taste to the gravy.  It goes well with rice/idly/dosa/rotis. It is not at all spicy. So, kids will definately enjoy this dish. This is a must try recipe according to me. We add mangalore/madras cucumber too in this gravy. 


INGREDIENTS:_                                                                         

sprouted beans- 1 cup (i used black eyed peas)
Madras/mangalore cucumber, cubed- 1 cup(remove the outer skin)
salt to taste

For grinding:-

Grated coconut - 1 cup
Red chillies - 6 if long or 4 if small & spicy
Tamarind - small chana size
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp

For tadka:-

onion, finely chopped - 1/2 cup
oil - as needed to shallow fry onion



METHOD:-

1. Grind the all ingredients to a smooth paste mentioned under FOR GRINDING & keep aside.
2. Peel the skin of sprouted bean.
3. Cook them along with madras/mangalore cucumber. Don't use pressure cooker coz it cooks very fast.
4. When it is almost cooked add masala & gravy & required water & cook further till done.
5. For temper, in a pan heat oil & add chopped onions fry till they are dark brown in colour & add it to the gravy & close the lid immediately.
6. After 5 mins, remove the lid & mix tadka & gravy well.

7. Serve hot with rice/idlies/dosas/rotis.









HAPPY COOKING :)))))))))
