To start making Andhra Dondakaya Ulli Kura Karam recipe, have all the ingredients ready and ready.
Place the cut Dondakaya into the pressure cooker, sprinkle with salt and 2 tablespoons of water, and cook on high pressure for 2 blasts.
After 2 blasts, turn off the heat and immediately release the weight with a fork or open the pressure cooker by placing it under cold water.
This is to ensure that we don't overcook the Dondakaya/Tindora. Set this aside.
The next step is to roast and grind the masala.
Heat a small saucepan over medium heat; add chana dal and urad dal and roast until coloured.
Once they turn a little brown, add methi seeds, coriander seeds, sesame seeds, cumin seeds, red chillies. Stir for about a minute until they start to release their aroma.
Once done, switch off the heat and allow the roasted masala to cool down.
Once cooled, place the masala, roasted peanuts and tamarind in a small jar of a blender and add the mixture to make a powder. Grind it without adding water. Set this aside.
The final step is to now integrate everything for Andhra Dondakaya Ulli Kura Karam.
Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat; add mustard seeds and allow to crackle.
Once done, add asafoetida and curry leaves and stir for a few seconds.
Add cooked Dondakaya/Tendli/Tindora and grated roasted masala. Give it a stir to combine thoroughly.
