Pattani Masala is one of my favorite evening snack. Every Saturday my husband get it for me from a nearby tea shop and we enjoy it with Bonda. For a change, i tried this masala at home and it was too delicious. While taking photos, i couldn’t resist myself from taking one or two spoons of masala. If you like to have it as snack then make it little watery. As i served with roti, i made it little thick.

Method :

  • Pressure cook pattani with 3 cup water for 3-4 whistles. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Do not drain the water. We will use this water to prepare gravy.
  • Divide cooked pattani into two portions. Grind one portion to coarse paste and keep it aside.

 

  • Dry roast all the ingredients mentioned under “Roast & Grind” for few seconds and allow to cool. Grind in a mixer to coarse powder. Keep it aside.
  • Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan or kadhai. Fry onion and tomatoes for 2 minutes on low flame. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Grind it along with the coarse powder to smooth paste. Keep it aside.

 

  • Heat 2 tbsp oil in a pan or kadai. Tamper mustard seeds and curry leaves. Add 2 tbsp chopped onion and saute a while.
  • Add ginger-garlic paste and saute a while. Add ground paste and turmeric powder. Stir well and add ground peas paste.
  • Saute a while. Add asofoetida, cooked peas along with water and salt to taste. Mix everything well. Add 1 cup water if needed and cook it covered on low heat for 10-15 mins. 
  • If you want it to watery, then adjust the amount of water. Garnish with coriander and chopped onions. Serve hot. You can also serve this masala with roti.
