Ingredients
Instructions
  1. In a pan heat a tablespoon of Sesame Oil
  2. Add finely chopped eggplant pieces and saute them for 4 to 5 minutes
  3. Once the eggplant pieces turn slight brown in color and the skin becomes soft remove them from pan
  4. Heat remaining oil in a frying pan and add Mustard Seeds. If you have fresh curry leaves do add them now
  5. Add chopped ginger, slit green and finely chopped onions, tomatoes
  6. In a medium flame keep sauteing until onions become translucent and tomatoes are slightly mushy
  7. Now add the eggplant, salt, saambar powder, hing, corainder powder. You don’t need turmeric powder for this recipe. Roasting the spices well along with veggies gives that lovely brown color to the Gothsu
  8. Mix everything well together. Let the spices get thorougly mixed with veggies
  9. Later add Tamarind Pulp and let the mixture boil for 3-4 minutes. Optionally you can add jaggery powder at this stage and serve Gothsu as it is. If you want the Gothsu to be slightly thicker you can add little rice flour mixed with water paste.
  10. If you have pressure cooked daal then add the moongdal at this stage. Use a potato masher or using a back of a spatula mash everything well
  11. Add 1/2 cup water (extra if needed)depending on your preferred consistency. Adjust salt and let the whole mixture boil again for 3 to 4 minutes
  12. At last add jaggery powder, mix it well and turn off the heat
  13. Delicious Kathrikai Gothsu is ready to be served with Idli/Dosai/Pongal
