Ingredients

  • Ginger- 2" piece
  • Grated coconut- 4 to 5 tsp
  • Red chilly Byadagi- 1
  • Cumin seeds- 1/2 tsp

  • Coconut Oil- 1 tsp

Instructions

Preparation

  • Wash and peel the ginger piece.

Method

  • In a frying pan add 1/2 tea spoon of oil, ginger, cumin seeds, red chilly and fry them all till the cumin seeds change in color.
  • Add fried items from step 1, grated coconut and salt in to a blender and grind it to fine paste adding minimum water.
  • Now transfer this in a bowl, add whisked curds/butter milk and mix it well. The consistency of tambuli should be thinner than chutney. So adjust the consistency by adding water.
  • Now in a small pan heat oil, add mustard seeds, urad dal, red chilly and curry leaves. When mustard seeds splutter add it to tambuli.
  • Shunti(ginger) tambli is ready to be served with hot rice.

Note

  • Red chilly can be replaced by green chilly or few pepper seeds. It tastes equally good.
