Cabbage-Onion-Masala-poLo

Hi there!
If you are in the mood of having an exotic side dish for meal and have some time  to prepare it, this is indeed an item you would want to consider.



You would need -



A cup of  rice soaked in water,


...some chopped Cabbage,  


...and some chopped Onions,..grated Coconut (one half), Tamarind (small piece), Roasted-dry-red-chillies (4-5), 

 Steps -

Mix grated coconut, Tamarind and Chillies in the Food mixer, 
add a bit of water and run for few mins
Add some water, get a coarse paste
Put soaked rice and some more water, 
...till it all mixes well and becomes pasty 
(no need for making it too fine)
Now mix chopped Cabbage and Onion to this mixture,
add salt to taste
Keep a tawa on stove with few drops of oil
Spread the mixture to form small 'islands' :)
Close with a lid, after few minutes toss them on their back
Roast it properly.
Poke with a spoon to ensure the paste has roasted properly
There you have it!

Vegetable side dish



Preparation -
Wash the vegetables (snake gourd, potato, capsicum, beans etc), drain water.
Cut them in thin lengthy pieces.


Steps -
  1. Put seasoning
  2. Add the cut vegetables, and fry on low flame for about 5-8min, constantly sauté the mix 
  3. Pour a glass of water, so the cut vegetables are decently immersed. Take care not to put too much water, it will dilute the taste
  4. Close the vessel with a lid
  5. Every few mins check whether veggies are cooked well
  6. Add salt to taste, mix well
  7. Serve hot :)
remove the seeds of snake gourd

put seasoning and add cut veggies


cut potatoes thin so they saute well
sauté well
