Tomato Jaipuri


For this month's blog hop i have chose Tomato Jaipuri from Rudra's blog Mom's Corner

the recipe

Tomato – 4 large

Ingredients for the filling
Potato – 2, boiled & mashed
Paneer – 100 gms, grated
Capsicum – 1 , finely chopped
Oil – 1 tbsp

Ingredients to grind

Oil – 1 tbsp
Onion – 1 large
Tomatoes – the scooped pulp
Cashew nuts or almonds – 10
Coriander powder – ½ + 1 tsp
Chilly powder – ½ + 1 tsp
Cumin powder – ½ + 1 tsp

Method

Blanch the tomatoes and cut the upper part of the tomatoes so as to get tomatoes in a cup shape. Scoop out the pulp and seed and reserve.
Heat oil in a pan and sauté the capsicum. Add ½ tsp each of coriander, cumin and chilly powder and salt and stir well. Add the mashed potato and grated paneer and mix till it is well cooked (stir continuously). Fill this mixture into the tomato cups. Reserve the balance.

Heat 1 tbsp oil and sauté the onion till it turns light brown. Stir in the tomato pulp, tomato pieces and cashew nuts and adequate salt and sauté till the tomatoes turn soft. Grind it to a fine paste.
Pour the tomato-onion paste into a pan and add 1 tsp each coriander, cumin and chilly powder. Add water if need be. I added the balance potato, capsicum & paneer mix also. Check salt. Carefully place the stuffed tomato cups and simmer for 10 minutes. Turn the tomatoes occasionally. Serve hot with rice, naan or roti. We had this with bread and also with rice.
I added a little bit of turmeric. But that has given a blushing yellow color. It is your preference whether to add turmeric or not to.

 the recipe goes to blog hop
