BM # 5  Day 5
Maani is chapatti or fulka.Seyal Maani is chapattis mixed with herbs and tomatoes,made a little mushy and served for breakfast in Sindhi homes.Actually I don’t mind it as a meal or even a evening snack.
Normally made from left over chapattis,but fresh ones too can be used.Today while blogging nostalgic feelings surround me.I remember my grandma,making this dish for me.Amma as we fondly called her,would make this oily and spicy,with a taste that cant be achieved by me.There are different versions of this particular dish,one such one is Hara Samosa…but I like this the best!!Well lets come to the recipe now…

6…………whole wheat chapattis
3………….tomatoes(pureed)
¼ tsp…….. red chilly pwd
¼ tsp……… turmeric
½ tsp ……..dhania jeera pwd
Salt to taste
2tb sp ……..oil
Coarsely ground paste…..

8-10cloves …garlic
¼ tsp……….ginger
2…………….green chilly
½ tsp ……….dhania jeera pwd
½ tsp ……….red chilly pwd
¼ tsp………..turmeric

2tb sp……….oil

Make a coarse paste of the above ingredients.add oil after the herbs and spices have blended well.
Apply this paste to your chapattis.

Saute’

In winters you could use fresh garlic,this really enhances the flavor.Also serve it piping hot..trust me you will relish the dish!

  1. What an interesting curry with chapathis. I don't think we can make any dish that tastes the same as our mom or grandmom. I think we should think that our children will feel the same way about our dishes and be happy. 🙂
