Kaleji Fry | Mutton Liver Fry

With friends over, I am cooking up dishes for everybody to relish. I made this delicious liver fry for my friends as a dry side.


Serves: 4

Ingredients:
500 gms mutton liver, cut into pieces,
1 large onion, finely chopped,
1 medium tomato, finely chopped,
2 tbsp tomato puree, (I have used readymade)
1 tsp ginger-garlic paste,
2 green chillies slit lengthwise,
8-10 curry leaves,
2-3 tsp red chilli powder,
1 tsp turmeric powder,
2 tsp cumin powder,
1 tsp coriander powder,
1 tsp garam masala powder,
2-3 tbsp oil,
Salt as per taste


Method:

  1. Wash and clean the liver pieces under running water and drain the excess water. Rub some turmeric powder on them and set it aside.
  2. In a heavy bottom pan, heat oil. Add the chopped onions, curry leaves and ginger garlic paste and fry until golden brown.
  3. Add chopped tomato and fry until the oil separates. 
  4. Add the cumin powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chilli powder and mix well.
  5. Add the liver pieces, slit green chillies and tomato puree and mix well. Adjust the salt as per taste.
  6. Add about 1/4 cup hot boiled water and cook for exactly 5-7 mins.
  7. Garnish with green coriander and serve hot.


Kaleji takes very less time to cook. Do not cook it more than 5-7 mins until tender. If cooked more, it would turn rubbery and not taste well. If you want a little runny gravy, add enough water the first time itself.

Sesame Seed Pellets - Til Ke Laddu

Happy Makar Sankranti & Pongal to all!!! Makar Sankranti is perhaps the only Indian festival whose date always falls on the same day every year i.e. the 14th of January. Can you guess why? This is because the festival of Sankranti is based on the solar calendar unlike the rest of Indian festivals, which are based on the lunar calendar. Makar literally means "Capricorn" and Sankranti is the day when the Sun changes it's position from one sign of the Zodiac to the other. Even though Sankranti comes every month, in the month of Magha (January) it is considered especially auspicious as it coincides with the harvest season and marks the end of the winter season. (Info: Google) Being a South Indian, I've relived the happiness and joy of Pongal every year... Though I did make chakara pongal which is customary in our house, I also decided to make Til Ke Laddu or tilgul . The sesame seed or til is given a lot of importance because in this season it is considered ...
