ABOUT Chitti Burilu Besari/ Urad Vadi Curry RECIPE

A traditional dish of Andhra Pradesh. A pick from my Mom's treasure of recipes.

Urad Dal - 1 cup
For the Masala:
2 onions
1 tsp cumin seeds
6 red chillies
Dry Mango chunks 2-3
Oil as required
Salt to taste
Mustard seeds 1 tsp
Curry leaves 4-5

Instructions

Soak the urad dal in water for 2 hours. Then soak the dry mango chunk in a cup of water too.
Wash and grind the urad dal to form a nice thick paste with some salt. Keep it aside.
Take a kadai, add some oil to heat. Then add the mustard seeds and curry leaves.
Next add the grounded masala paste and stir fry for a minute. Then add in the mango chunks with the soaked water.
Stir fry for this for a few minutes, then add 5 to 6 cups of water and salt to taste.
Let it come to a boil, while it's boiling add small lumps of the urad batter into the curry. Let it simmer and cook for a while.
Take out a wadi and check if it's cooked from the inside. Adjust the salt as per taste.
