INSTRUCTIONS

FOR THE GARNISH
HEAT oil in a kadai and deep fry the mongodi till golden. Remove to an
absorbent paper to drain excess oil. Reserve in a panful of water until
ready to cook. Quarter the tomato and remove the pulp and the seeds.
Heat ghee in a kadai. Add cumin seeds. When they crackle, add garlic paste
and ginger paste. Stir-fry until the moisture evaporates. Add the chopped
coriander leaves and stir-fry until dry. Add coriander powder, chilli
powder and turmeric powder (dissolved in 60 ml. water). Stir-fry until
almost dry. Then add tomato puree and stir-fry until the ghee floats on
top. Add potatoes, mongodi and salt. Stir-fry for about seven minutes or
until the potatoes and the mongodi are well coated with coriander leaves.
Sprinkle pepper powder, cardamom powder, cinnamon powder, nutmeg powder and
kasoori methi powder on top. Stir well and remove from heat.
Remove to a serving dish. Garnish with coriander leaves and tomato strips.
Serve either as a main course with puris or as an accompaniment.

NOTES : (The Rajasthanis make only Dhania Mongodi, a remarkable coriander
delight. We introduced potatoes, in the full belief that it would enhance
the taste. We believe our faith has been vindicated.)
