Tomato Fry
Posted by Annita on October 30, 2006
This is a simple and spicy side dish served in small local restaurants in Kerala.It takes hardly 10 minutes to prepare this curry and so i prefer cooking it ,whenever i’m in a hurry.

Tomato fry served with roti
Here’s the recipe for you to try out..
Ingredients:-
Diced Tomato – 3
Sliced Onion – 1 big
Kashmiri Chilly powder – 2 tsp
Turmeric powder – 1/4 tsp
Ginger garlic paste – 1 tbsp

Water – 1/2 cup

Annita,
thanks for the recipes. Apart from using your time, it is a great web community service. Absolutely love your site. My immediate future project is the Uzzunu vada, one that came out as balls the last time i tried and haven’t had the courage after that.

Anita, it is damn good. But may I tell you that adding half spoonful of fenugreek powder and a spoon of sugar at the end will enhance the taste a flavour.
Anyway, congrats.
