Steps
- 1
Soak Chana dal, Tuvar Dal, Dhania, Cumin Seeds and dry Red Chilli in warm water for 15 mins
- 2
After 15 mins, drain the water and add the soaked ingredients to a blender. Also add the green Chilli, ginger and coconut gratings. Add a tablespoon of curd and blend to a smooth paste.
- 3
Now in a Kadai/Pan take oil for tempering. On heating add all ingredients mentioned under "to temper" except the Bhindi and fry for 30 seconds or until the dals turn light brown. Now add the bhindi and saute.
- 4
Keep stirring every now and then. Bhindi should be crisp and cooked, but not mushy. Once the Bhindi is cooked transfer to a plate or vessel.
- 5
Now put the same Kadai on the flame and pour the ground paste into it. Reduce the flame and add 1 to 1.5 cups of water and simmer it. The paste has to cook well, for about 2 minutes or until the raw taste of the masalas is gone.
- 6
Now smoothen the remaining curd(we used only 2 tbsp for the paste) with a whisk or give it a single spin in the blender and pour this curd into the cooking paste. Add turmeric powder and salt.
- 7
Once the curd is poured, keep stirring constantly for a few minutes, approx. 2 minutes and put off the flame. Now add the sauteed/fried Bhindi to the gravy. The yummy Mor Kuzhambu is ready. Enjoy with hot rice and ghee or Coconut rice.
