Onion Garlic / Vengayam Poondu Kuzhambu



This kuzhambu is remedy for cough. I learnt this recipe from my Bangalore neighbor and friend Vijaya Amma. My hearty thanks to her.






Ingredients:
Sambar Onion / Big Onion
(cut them into small pieces)
 ¼ cup
Garlic
¼ cup
Tamarind
Gooseberry Size
Red chilly and Coriander seeds Powder mix
3 tsp
Sesame Oil
2 tbs
Cooking oil
1 tsp
Mustard seeds
1 tsp
Salt
As required

Procedure:
1. Soak the tamarind in warm water for 5 mins. Then extract the juice completely. Add 2 cups of water.
2. Add red chilly, coriander powder mix and salt with tamarind water. Mix them well and keep it aside.
3. In a pan, add garlic and onion, sauté till the onion becomes translucent. Allow it to cool down and grind them into fine paste using little water.
5.  Heat the sesame oil in a pan, add mustard seeds and wait for popping.
6. Add ground paste and fry for a min. Then add tamarind mix and mix them well. Close the lid of the pan and cook till the mixture becomes 1/3 of it or till the oil separates.
   Now the onion garlic kuzhambu is ready to serve. Serve it with rice or parathas.

Note:
1. We use red chilly, coriander seeds powder mix. Instead of this use red chilly powder and coriander seeds powder separately.

2. Sambar onion gives better taste than big onion.
