Tomato Curry
Description
Tomato Curry (Thakkali Curry). It is appreciated for being a simple, quick, and comforting curry to prepare with minimal ingredients.
Ingredients:
Instructions
-
Heat the oil in a wok / Kadai.
-
Add the mustard seeds and allow them to splutter.
-
As soon as the mustard seeds have stopped popping, add the curry leaves, followed by the onion and green chilli.
-
Sauté on med-high flame, stirring till the onions are softened and just changing colour.
-
Now, add the tomatoes and continue to cook down on, stirring on medium-high heat till the tomatoes are mushy and reduced to a thickened saucy texture. (TIP: We keep it on a higher flame for the aromas to intensify. You will notice it develops a toasty, smoky aroma. If cooking on low heat, you lose out on this.)
-
Reduce the heat now and add the spice powders ( turmeric, chilli and coriander). Stir and cook till aromatic ( without burning).
-
Beat the coconut milk once and stir it into the curry. Also, add salt.
-
Bring to a gentle simmer and stir for 1 minute. Remove from heat.
-
Sprinkle over the finely chopped fresh coriander. Tasty AND SIMPLE Tomato Curry is ready!
Note
- Coconut milk should be at room temperature for best results.
- The coconut milk should not be too thin nor should you use extra-thick coconut cream. Stir briskly and continuously after adding the coconut milk and keep the flame on medium.
- Add the coconut milk ONLY after you get the nice aroma of the cooked spices.
- This curry reheats perfectly in the Microwave. Microwave for 30 seconds- 1 minute.
- Key Ingredients: Tomato, Onion, Green Chilli, Coconut Milk, Mustard Seeds, Curry leaves, Coriander leaves, Oil, Salt.
