Its very simple and tasty. a day old kulambu like just perfect (like meen kulambhu)
Ingredients-1
4 stks Green onion(finely choped)
1 Tamarind (lime size)
1 no Tomato
1 tsp Salt
¼ tsp Turmeric powder
¾ tsp R.chilli powder
½ tsp Channa masala powder or fish masala powder

1 tsp Vadagam
4 strands Curry leaves
4 T Oil
Ingredients-3
1 tsp Butter
4 stks Cliantro( chopped)
2 stks Green onions (finely chopped)

Instructions

step 1.  In a bowl mix tamarind in to a thick paste.

step2.  then add tomato and make puri out of it.

step3.  take all the pulp from tamarind and tomato. add some water

step4.   in that puri add chillipowder, corriande rpowder,cumin powder ,channa masala powder,salt and turmeric powder.check for the taste

step5.  meanwhile heat oil in a kadai or wok and add mustard after it splutter add fenugreek,curryleaves and vadagam.

step6. fry for few seconds then add green onion.(cut the leaves and the onions into small pieces)

step7. fry green onion for more then 15 mintues

step8. it should be 1/3th of the quantity that we put in the wok fry occassionally and see to that it does not burn

step9. now we can see the oil get seperated from green onion now add the puri

step10. it has to boil for 15 mintues or until it is in semi solid state (it should not watery)

step11.  after it all done add 1 tsp butter for rich texture and flavor

step12. garnish it with corriander leaves and green onions.

step13. do it before one day then it will taste really good

Notes

old tamarind taste really good

butter is optional. we can add ghee but ghee dominates the taste.if u like ghee can add some

i actually forgot should add 3garlic pods and fry along with green onions

the green onion stalks should have onions in their root.
