Been a very tired day and you just want to cook something for the sake of cooking?

No worries!! Quick Tamato curry comes to your rescue. 

You will need :

• 2 Medium size tamato
• 1 green chilly
• 20 mustard seeds
• 10 garlic  pods
• One medium spoon Red chilly powder
• 1/2 spoon Haldi

• Time : 15 minutes

Heres how you make it:

Heat oil and add bastard seeds oh sorry mustard seeds to it. When it splutters add kadi patta, garlic and chill. When you get the aroma of the tadka add haldi and masala. 

After 5 seconds ass the tamato n salt . Fry till tamato gets soft and oil starts to surface. 

Then add one cup water and bring to boil for 7 minutes or so.

Thats it. Tamato curry is ready. I believe this is how Navga mai used to make it.

First day:

Soak idli rice in warm water enough for the rice to soak in the morning  around 8 -9 am.

Also soak the udal dal separately in warm water at the same time.The same day at 8 'clock evening grind the idli rice to a fine batter in the mixer.Now grind the udad dal with very little water to a thick paste. Mix the idli batter and the udal dal battter togather , add salt and mix thoroughly. (**do not add lot water like dosa. It should be a thick paste). Let it stand until next day morning with a covered lid.

Next day:

Add a half spoon of eno to this and mix properly. Now keep the idli container with a little water on the gas and boil it . Place the batter in idli moulds and cover it. Steam it on HIGH flame for 15 mins.
