22. Seasoning

Ingredients:

  • Ghee/Sesame oil Red Chilies Urad Dal/Black Gram Asafoetida Curry Leaves
  • 1. Ghee or Sesame oil- Heat this in a saute pan(wok) or iron ladle or mud pot or a vessel which is rust free until the spluttering sound stops.
  • 2. Red Chillies Remove the stems and break it into smaller pieces and drop it in the ghee or oil and leave it until it is half-cooked.
  • 3. Urad Dal or Black gram- Add this to the red chillies and keep it until the spluttering sound stops.
  • 4. Then put this seasoning in the desired dish and mix it. If you want to add asafoetida and curry leaves, you can add it when the mustard seed stops spluttering.
  • 5. It is necessary to follow the above procedure correctly for seasoning. Some people add the mustard, red chillies etc before the oil is heated and take it out of the stove before the spluttering stops.
  • 6. If it is done this way, the taste of the dish will be spoiled and there are many ailments caused in the body.
