Spicy Raw Tomato Pappu

Hi Viewers

Today's recipe is simple and spicy dish with raw tomatoes with combination of tur dal. Generally we made tomato pappu with  red ripe tomatoes.

To overcome the boredom of eating the same tomato pappu, I thought of coming with another combination of raw tomato with tur dal with little spicy mixture.

Ingredients
  • Tur dal                                     1 cup
  • Raw tomatoes                          3 (chopped finely)
  • Green chillies                           4 (chopped)
  • Red chilli powder                     1/4 tbsp
  • Turmeric powder
  • Oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Curry leaves
For Grounding
  • Kaskas                                    1/2 tbsp
  • Fresh grated coconut              1 1/2 tbsp
  • Coriander seeds                      1 tbsp
For Popu
  • Mustard seeds
  • Hing
  • Curry leaves 
  • Dry red mirchi                        1
How I did it
  1. Wash  and pressure cook tur dal upto 5 whistles.
  2. See that it should be soft.
  3. Heat a pan, add oil. When the oil is heated, add green chillies, raw tomatoes turmeric powder.
  4. Let it cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
  5. Meantime fry kaskas and coriander seeds in dry pan.
  6. Grind it by adding grated coconut into smooth paste.
  7. Mix cooked dal, tomato and grounding paste, add salt, red mirchi powder and curry leaves in bowl and cook for 5 more minutes.
  8. Check the consistency and switch off the burner.
  9. Transfer into a bowl.
  10. Heat 1 tbsp oil, add mustard seeds, let it pop, add red mirchi, hing and curry leaves and mix in raw tomato pappu.
See the yummy yummy taste and difference in normal tomato dal and with little spicy raw tomato dal.





My Note

  • See the consistency  of dal. The consistency of pappu gives taste.
  • Garama garam rice, raw tomato pappu with dollop of ghee is enough for comforting meal.
  • Don't forget about papad or challa mirchi at side.
  • You can use this for lunch and for roti for dinner time.
  • You can add little quantity of Amarnath leaves also to this pappu.
