Tempering
- Our first step is tempering the thokku. To do this, heat a pan with sesame oil. Pop the mustard seeds and add the fennel seeds along with the curry leaves.
Making the gravy
- Now add the chopped shallots and garlic. Fry till shallots turn pink and translucent.
- At this stage, add the spice powders. Mix well. Cook on low flame for 30 secs.
- Tip in the chopped tomatoes next and cook till the tomatoes become mushy.
- Now add tamarind paste and salt. Mix well.
- This is the gravy for our Radish masala.
Cooking the radish
- Now that our gravy is ready, our next step is cooking the radish along with the gravy to infuse flavors.
- Add the sliced radish to the pan and mix well. Make sure the masala coats the radish well.
- Once this is done, add 1 c water and salt.
- Simmer this for 10 mins or until 90% of the water is absorbed and the radishes are fork-tender.
- Our Mullangi Thokku is now ready to be served.
