Matthanga Erisheri (Kerala Special)

Here comes my first post this year... Belated Happy New Year to all of you out there..Hope all of you
experience variety dishes and new tastes this year..

I thought of  publishing  Soya Masala recipe which was rich and which most of my friends liked, but to my dismay there is some issue with the image which I had taken, so it's put on hold as of now. So I will start with a Kerala dish which I tried out sometime back, under my aunt's guidance.It's a simple curry which any one can try out.Hope u people like it.

5) Garlic - 3-4
6) Cumin seeds - 1 pinch
7) Curry Leaves - 4-5
8) Mustard seeds - 1 pinch
9) Salt
10) Oil

Preparation :
 
1) Cut the melon in to small cubic size pieces(size of a normal sugar cube) .Cook melon pieces in a pressure cooker with salt(1 pinch)  water(1 whistle might be enough as the melon gets cooked fast.)
2) Grind Coconut along with  garlic, cumin seeds, turmeric and 2 pieces of red chilli.
3) When the melon gets cooked, transfer the melon in to a pan and smash them, and then add the grind-ed coconut mix(2nd step) along with the water in which the melon got cooked; mix the ingredients well.
4) In a heated pan, add oil, mustard seeds, and red chilli(2pc, cut in two halves) , when the mustard seeds splutter, add the mix(3rd step), and then add curry leaves in to the mix.Keep it for 5 minutes to get cooked.
