My mother used to make this onion tomato curry (koora) when we were about to go on vacation or just returned from vacation and didn’t have many vegetables in the house. This koora works really well with rice or with pooris.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons cooking oil
- 2 dried red chile peppers, broken into pieces
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
- ¼ teaspoon asafoetida powder
- 1 sprig fresh curry leaves
- 2 onions, chopped
- 2 green chile peppers, chopped
- ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
- 4 tomatoes, chopped
- ½ teaspoon red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon white sugar
- salt, to taste
- ½ cup water
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves, for garnish (Optional)
Directions
Step 1
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry red chile peppers, cumin seeds, and mustard seeds in hot oil until seeds begin to splutter, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle asafoetida powder over seeds and add curry leaves. Stir onions, green chile peppers, and turmeric powder into mixture. Cook and stir until onions are softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add tomatoes, red chili powder, sugar, and salt; continue cooking until tomatoes are pulpy. Pour water into mixture; simmer until curry begins to thicken, 5 to 10 minutes. Garnish with cilantro to serve.
