This recipe wasn't the easiest to follow....it was kinda limited in its instruction, at least this was what Mr TTCB said as he was cooking it. It was sweet of him to step up and do this dish for me as I really wanted to try it but was feeling too poorly to bother. I have added a bit of information to this that was not on the original site and fixed some of the English translation up to hopefully make it a bit easier on you guys if you wish to try it.
We just served this dish with plain boiled rice and some store brought Roti (bread wrap), you can also make yourself a Rasam to go over the rice if you wish to be more traditional.
I thought the curry and rice was a little dry but I imagine a Rasam would fix that as it is served over the rice so would add liquid to the dish. It was certainly full of flavour but Miss Three was really not having it...But she did eat the plain rice and the Roti.
