But the recipe I am posting today is bit different, I have changed it a little bit to make it more tangy to go with Idlies.
Sweet potato - 1 medium size (skin peeled and grated, about 1 cup)
Tempering : Oil- 1tsp, Cumin seeds, mustard seeds,channadal - 1tsp each, asafeotida/hing - 1 pinch.
Onion and tomato medium size each- chopped, red chilies - 2 to 3, tamarind soaked in water.
- Grate sweet potatoes and keep aside.
- Heat oil in a pan, when hot add mustard seeds, cumin seeds and channdal once dal starts to change colour add onion and tomatoes. Cook for few minutes untill tomatoes are soft. Let it cool.
- Once the mixture is cooled, add them along with grated Sweet potatoes, add tamarind water or use tamarind paste, add salt to taste. Blend/grind together to smooth paste with water, to desired consistency.
Enjoy with rice, dosas or idlies.
We had Chutney with idlies, our weekend Brunch.
