- ½ teaspoon clarified butter
- 2-3 dried red chillies
- 1 spring curry leaves
- 3 cups Water
- Salt as per taste
- ½ coconut freshly grated, optional
Instructions
- I prefer to pressure cook my tomatoes. But you can also chop them roughly and boil them in an open pan.
- Let the pressure drop naturally. Cool, the tomatoes there will be some liquid in the pan of tomatoes.
- Peel the tomatoes if you wish then transfer them to the mixer grinder.
- Add the jaggery, salt,curry leaves and some cumin seeds. Cumin is optional but I like the aroma, in case you are using red chillies add them to the mixer and grind fine.
- Transfer to the pan. And heat it.
- Add the water that has collected in the tomatoes and run the mixer again. This will remove all the residue of the tomatoes.
- Check the thickness of the mixture in the pan, you will need to thin this out. Add water to the mixer and run the mixer again. Add the water to the pan.
- Check for seasonings.
- In a separate pan heat, the clarified butter add the cumin seeds, curry leaves and chillies.
- Pour over the Tomato saar. Your Saar is ready.
