Tamatar ka Kat or Tamate ka Kat is a simple yet an excellent option for everyday cooking. It goes well alongside many an important Hyderabadi dishes like Hyderabadi Tala huwa Gosht, Hyderabadi Shami Kababs, Hyderabadi Shikampuri Kababs, Hyderabadi Kuchla huwa Gosht etc.
An easy dish that's made with Tomatoes, Onions and a few spices. Split Bengal Gram is used in this as a special addition. This gives it a unique flavour.
There is one more version where this Kat is made without the use of Split Bengal Gram but that's okay. Though I personally prefer the method shred by me here since it's the most authentic one.
My mom in law had taught me this and I happened to taste it for the first time after my marriage. And since then there's been no looking back for me. I practically make it every now and then for my family. It's actually kind of a lost recipe and many from the younger generation doesn't even have an inkling or an idea of it.
Eggs make it more rich and healthy. Children would love to eat it too. The best part is that I make only this without any side dish. This is enough with some freshly made boiled Rice or Cumin Rice.
