Drumstick Lady's Finger Puli Kuzhambu

     I can blindly say, "This is my Faaavvvooorrriiitttteee Gravy". Its beacuse of the 2 words in the Name "Puli" and "Drumstick". I love all type of Tangy dishes by nature. I had some left out Lady's Finger sitting silently for 2 days in my Fridge so, just thought of adding it in this gravy along with Drumstick. As i was tried adding Lady's finger for the first time in Puli Kuzhambu, I was in bit dilemma, whether Lady's finger will spoil my evergreen tangy taste of this recipe :( Thank God ! It doesnt !! Hurrraaaaaayyyyyyyyyy :))))))) So, Heres my new tried Recipe for you ppl.



INGREDIENTS
Drumstick - 1 No
Lady's Finger - 4 to 5 Nos.
Chopped Onion - 3 Nos.
Chopped Tomato - 1 or 2 Nos.(Small sized)
Curry Leaf - 1 Twig
Corainder Leaf - 2 Twigs

Salt - To Taste
Sesame Oil - To Granish
Mustard - 1 Spoon
Fenugreek - 1/4 Spoon
Water - Required

METHOD:
    Fry the chopped lady's finger for 5 mins in a pan (To avoid the stickyness) and keep aside. Keep a pan, heat a spoon of Sesame Oil, allow the mustard to splutter. Then add Fenugreek, Curry leaf, Corainder Leaf, Chopped Onion, Chopped Tomato, saute it for 5 mins. Then add Turmeric Powder, Corainder Powder and Chilly Powder, saute well with the Onion+Tomato mixture, until the oil oozes out. Then add a cup of water, add Drumstick, fried Lady's finger along with salt. Allow the content to get half cooked. Then add the tamarind syrup and water(If required), allow the gravy to get boiled, until the raw smell of tamarind goes off. Put off the flame, after 10 mins. This will be a great combo when we serve with Steamed Rice during Rainy Season.... Slurp :)
