This particular vegetable has been on my mind since I watched Rajesh Khanna in the movie 'Bawarchi'...
Being a cook of the house, he cooks Suran and the whole family licks their plates clean. How much I wanted to eat it since those days....
Somehow I never ever cooked it....but it was my husband who made me realize the other day that you have not cooked this vegetable ever....and there it was....challenge accepted....
My son was very much excited to know that there is some vegetable which we all are gonna taste together for the first time in our lives.....
Simplest recipe chosen to suit our taste buds, served as a side dish and relished by all means!
Serves: 4 Preparation Time: 30 mins (incl. soaking time) Cooking Time: 10 to 15 mins
Ingredients:
Suran/ Yam 250 gms - cleaned, thinly sliced and soaked in water
Rice Flour 4 tbsp
Tamarind marble sized - soaked in hot water
Chilly pwd 1 tbsp
Homemade Garam Masala 1/2 tbsp
Coriander pwd 1 tsp
Amchur pwd 1 tsp
Haldi 1/2 tsp
Salt as per taste
Soak the Suran slices in tamarind water for 15 to 20 mins (or more). This prevents an itching sensation in throat/mouth which might be caused due to Suran
Mix all dry masala powders with rice flour. Add salt as desired
Heat oil in a wide pan
Dunk the suran slices in dry mixture (in batches) and arrange in hot oil
Let it fry on one side for 5 to 7 mins. Flip over and fry for another 5 to 7 mins.
You can use the fork to test if the slices are soft/ cooked
Fry till you achieve desired crispness
Serve warm
Notes:
Fine sooji/ rava can also be added to rice flour
Spices and their quantity can be adjusted as per choice
