Mixed Sprouts Curry

 

Method :

Heat the oil and splutter the mustard and cumin seeds. Add in the onions, ginger and garlic and cook till the onion begins to change colour.

Add the curry leaves, salt, red chilly powder, goda powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, cumin powder and stir for a minute. Add the boiled sprouts and mix well.

Add 1 cup of water and bring to boil.Add the mashed potato and boil for another 5 minutes.Add the tamarind chutney/paste and give it a boil.

The curry needs to have a lot of liquid so add 2 cups of water and bring to boil.

Served the Missal topped with farsaan and chopped onion and coriander leaves.

Add a dash of lemon for an extra bit of tang, if desired. Serve with fresh pao/pav.

*Goda masala powder is a maharastrian spice . If not available, garam masala with an extra 1/4 tsp of cinnamon may be used
* This curry needs to be watery as pav is dipped and eaten, so ensure there is enough water.

Method :

Prove the yeast- Warm up half a cup of milk, add in the sugar and stir well. The milk should feel warm on the underside of your wrist. Not hot, not cool- a high warm, if I may call it that. Stir in the yeast and leave to bloom for 10-15 minutes till it is all frothy. This is how it should froth and bubble up. If it does not froth, throw it away and start again or try different yeast. Add the salt and milk powder to the maida and mix well. Add the yeast mix to the flour mix and start kneading. Add more milk very gradually as you knead, only if required. The dough will be very sticky and a little difficult to handle. Don’t worry! That is exactly how it is meant to be!

(I love dis Texture so could control ma self to bake fast and its does rise well but taste is same like outside thanks a ton Sweety and big hugsssss to u )

Add  the butter and knead well till it becomes a soft and pliable dough, easy to handle. This will take about 15-20 minutes.

Do not add flour or oil, just kneading it well will make the dough non-sticky and springy.

Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, cover with cling film, or a kitchen towel and rest for 1 ½ to 2 hours.

The dough should double up. The time actually depends on the weather conditions-if very hot, it doubles sooner than the 1 ½ hours. This is the first prove.

Divide the dough into equal portions, shape them as roundels or slightly elongated and arrange in a greased baking dish close together so that they touch each other. This ensures the ladi forming else they will bake like separate buns. No harm in that- it is just a matter of choice how you want them. Cover with cling film or a kitchen towel taking care to that they do not touch the top of the bread. Leave to rise again for about 45 minutes. This is the second prove.

Preheat the oven at 200C for 15 minutes.

(This beauty to see no words to say its Terrific Recipe all has to try & will sure forget to purchase the Bread/ Bun / Pao from outside )

Brush the pao buns with milk and bake at 200C till they brown.

Once browned, remove and brush the ladi pao with butter.

Your ladi pao is ready! Enjoy with Missal or Bhaji 🙂
