Kathirikkai Kosthu

Cook the brinjal pieces in pressure cooker r in a pan with 1/4 cup of water(if its in pressure cooker, else add little more water if u r cooking them in pan) until they cook well..grind them without extracting the water in food processor coarsely..keep aside..meanwhile dry roast the ingredients in group 2..coconut n moong dal is completely optional,some may add just coconut to give a slight flavour while others add moong dal, i like to add this both, if u r nt interested can omit them very well..grind them coarsely as shown in picture n keep aside too..

Heat oil in a pan, splutter mustard seeds, channa dal n urad dal..add the onions n stir them until it turns transculent, extract the tamarind juice, once the onions r transculent add the tamarind juice n turmeric powder n let them boil until the raw smell disappears,add the brinjal puree n roasted spices to the tamarind mix..keep the flame in simmer once u add brinjal puree, stir them n add salt n curry leaves n cilantro leaves(chopped)..once they r cooked put off the stove..Kathirikkai kosthu shouldnt be neither like sambar n nor like chutney..dont cook a long they may turn easily as chutney, so that its will tastes sour..

Kathirikkai Kosthu is ready to serve..serve them with hot idlies n dosais..
