Capsicum Tamarind Thokku

Capsicum Tamarind Thokku

This is usually called as  Kuda Milagai kulambu or Kuda Milagai Thokku. This goes very well with curd rice. It will stay edible for some days if proper care is taken of. So you can prepare ahead of time and store it in fridge.

Ingredients:

Small onions          - 200gm

Capsicum               - 200gm

Green Chillies        - 2

Tamarind                - A lemon size

Salt                         - As required

Turmeric Powder   - A pinch

Oil                          - As requied.

Procedure:

1. Soak Tamarind in water and take extract out of it.
2. Heat oil in a pan, Add onions, Saute it till it become translucent.
3. Add Green chillies and capsicum.
4. Add salt and turmeric powder
5. Once capsicum is half done, add tamarind extract.
6. Receipe is ready when the oil leaves on the sides of pan.

Quick Tips:

1. Instead of capsicum, you can repeat the above using just Green chillies.
2. You can also replace small onion with big onion.
3. You needn't add more oil, .more oil was added then just to keep the thokku stay good for some more time. Now keeping in fridge will work.. So Using little oil is very fine.
4. Adjust the spice according to your taste
5. I have added more turmeric powder, since my husband doesn't like that black colour. Use yours accordingly.
