#CA26 - This is an absolutely amazing curry where I added some ghee to the end product for some distinct flavor. I added tomatoes to this dish, but you can add some lime juice for more tangy flavor. Very few basic ingredients are required to dish out this recipe. It is a simple side dish that has a tempering of mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Enjoy it with rice or any Indian flat bread.
