This is an authentic tasty and healthy GSB dish, which can made by using homegrown veggies like malabar spinach and raw papaya.This is a little bit thicker in consistency , compared to other ambats. And this is prepared using only coconut for gravy,without dal. So here is the recipe – I made this using Vaali & papaya grown at home ..so the fresh veggies make it even more tasty!
Ingredients :-
- Vaali / Malabar Spinach – about 50 leaves
- Raw Papaya – Half of a small papaya
- Grated Coconut – 1/2 of a coconut
- Red Chillies – 7-8 or as per taste
- Tamarind – a gooseberry sized
- Onion – 1 – finely chopped
- Oil for seasoning about 2 tbsps preferably coconut oil
- Salt to taste
Method :-
Rinse the vaali bhajji leaves in water and chop.Peel the raw papaya, deseed and cut into big cubes.
Cook adding salt and required amount of water.
Roast the red chillies . Grind the freshly grated coconut, , red chillies, tamarind to a very very smooth paste ,
preferably in a grinder, to get the authentic flavour.
Remove the masala from the grinder.
Mix with the cooked veggies, and give it a good boil. Check the salt.
Add the finely chopped onion and fry it in coconut oil till golden brown.
