Dosakaya Tomato kura

Hi Viewers

         Today I am coming with delicious dish  ie dosakaya, tomato curry mixed with little curd. It tastes good. Dosakaya are used in Andhra cooking usually in dals, sambar, curry, pachadi etc. This is variety and yummy dish.
 
         After I am back from Bangalore from my niece's wedding, there are no vegetables in the fridge except one dosakaya and 2 tomatoes. Also the curd I brought from sweet shop near by. I thought of making quick gravy curry and to adjust with one dish for that day.

         Try by your self this dish for tangy gravy mixing curd. Very easy to make and takes little time to prepare.

OK let us start.

  10. Add curd. Mix well.
  11. See the curry starts bubling on top.
  12. Let it sit for couple of minutes.
  13. Transfer it into a serving bowl.
See the taste.

     It tastes good with rice and roti, best with garama garam rice with dollop of ghee.


Mt Note

If using green chillies. Adjust red chilli powder accordingly.
Add coconut powder to enhance the taste.
Do not add curd when the curry in hot. The curd will curdle.
Instead of dosakaya , you can use sorakaya also.
