Ingredients
- 1.5 cups tomatoes - finely chopped or chopped, or about 250 to 275 grams
- 1 teaspoon ginger - finely chopped, or about ¾ inch ginger, peeled & finely chopped
- 1 green chili chopped or ½ teaspoon, chopped
- ¼ teaspoon mustard seeds
- ½ teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 pinch asafoetida
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder
- ¼ teaspoon red chili powder - to make spicy add ½ teaspoon red chili powder
- ½ teaspoon cumin powder
- ½ teaspoon coriander powder
- ¾ teaspoon sugar or add as required
- ¾ cup sev - slightly thick variety, can add sev as required
- ½ cup water or add as required
- 2 tablespoons chopped coriander (cilantro), for garnish
- salt as required
Instructions
- First rinse and then finely chop the tomatoes, ginger and green chilli.
- Heat oil in a pan. Add mustard seeds and crackle them on low heat.
- Then add cumin seeds and sauté till they change color. This takes a few seconds.
- Then add chopped ginger, green chilies and asafoetida. Stir and saute on low heat for 10 to 12 seconds or until the raw aroma of ginger goes away.
- Add the chopped tomatoes.
- Stir to mix. Add the spice powders - turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder and cumin powder.
- Mix very well. Sauté for a minute on low heat. Then add salt as required and sugar.
- Mix and continue to sauté. You have to stir a few times so that the tomatoes get cooked evenly.
- Sauté on low to medium heat till the tomatoes soften and become pulpy or mushy.
- Then add water. Stir to combine.You can make the curry more thick also, if you prefer, by adding less water.
- Bring the tomato curry to a simmer. Turn off the heat and check the taste. Add more salt and sugar if required.
- When done, pour the tomato curry or sabzi in serving bowl/bowls.
- Sprinkle sev evenly all over on top of the curry.
- Garnish with coriander leaves and serve the Sev Tamatar ki Sabji or Sev Tameta nu Shaak with phulka, chapati or methi thepla or bajra roti.
Notes
- Instead of sev, you can use gathiya. If you add gathiya, then mix it with the curry or gravy.
- Use fresh, ripe, juicy, red tomatoes that are not very tangy. A slight sweetness in the tomatoes is preferred for this curry. If in case the curry becomes very sour, then increase the amount of sugar.
- You can also use jaggery instead of sugar. If you are not a fan of sweet taste in the curry, feel free to omit adding the sugar.
- For a spicy curry, increase the amount of green chillies and red chilli powder.
- I have not added onion and garlic, but you can add these two ingredients.
