I am backkkkkk...updating blog after 2 years....uffff...hello friends...hwr u all ??? Feeling great tobe in touch with you all again 👍
My today's special recipe is from Karnataka "mixed kaalu palya". Kaalu means pulses. Here, we use 4 types of pulses I. e. Green gram, Kabuli Chana, black eyed peas & grean peas. We soak them & cook them & blend them in masalas to make a healthy & delicious curry which will be dry & goes well with rotis/dosa/rice. I adopted this recipe from LIFE IS MARVELOUS.
Ingredients needed:
1 small cup Hesaru KaaLu ( Green gram )
1 small cup Kadale Kaalu ( Kabuli Chana )
1 small cup Alasande KaaLu ( black eyed peas )
1 small cup Bataani ( Green peas )
1 big onion or 2 small onions — finely chopped
1 big tomato or 2 small tomatoes — finely chopped
Seasoning :
3 tspns -> Oil
Mustard seeds – 1 spoon
Cumin seeds – 1 spoon
Chana dal – 1 spoon
Urad dal – 1 spoon
Byadgi Chilli – 1 broken into 2 slits
Green chillies – 4 to 5 ( based on spicy levels consumed at home )
Red chilli powder – 1 to 2 tspns
Salt as required
Method:
[1] Soak all the pulses mentioned above like green peas, Green gram, Kabuli Chana, black eyed peas overnight.
[2] Boil all the pulses soaked, in pressure cooker upto 2 whistles and cool.
[3] Now take a pan and season the ingredients mentioned under seasoning, add, Chopped Onions and fry till little golden color and then add tomotoes chopped and fry till tomatoes fully get cooked, it gets mushy at this stage, now add boiled pulses, chilli powder, salt and close the lid.
Let it cook for 3-4 mins.. At this stage, check and stir well to avoid bottom of the pan getting burnt..
This goes well with Chapathi and dosas.
