Today I am going to make an onion curry. This is my mom’s onion curry recipe, which she made with shallots (small onions). In this onion curry recipe, I am using big onions. This is easier, as small onions can be really fiddly to peel, and take a long time, and there is no discernible difference in the taste.

This is a mouth watering onion curry recipe, and goes very well with both rice and chapattis.

Onion Curry recipe

Ingredients

Onions – 3 or 4
Green chillies – 2
Chilli powder – 3/4 tsp
Turmeric powder –  ¼ tsp
Roasted fenugreek seed powder – 1/2 tsp
Tamarind – as required

Preparation

Slice the onion into small pieces – chop them as small as possible.

Take a lemon sized ball of tamarind and soak it in hot water (only a little water is needed). After some time, strain the tamarind water out. Keep it aside.

In a pan pour some oil and add some mustard seeds. When they splutter, add the sliced onions & split green chillies, and fry till they become slightly brown in colour.

Add the chilli powder and turmeric powder. Fry again for 2 minutes.
