Carrot Thoran/Carrot Poriyal

Well, i already added CARROT BEANS THORAN during initial days of my blog. Ofcourse preparing thoran is not a big deal. Since carrot thoran is so easy, i used to prepare it for my kid if there are no other vegetables for lunch. Didn't thought of adding this recipe here, but today while clicking photos of drumstick sambar just clicked these snaps too. I hope this may be useful for those who are new to kitchen. Yeah drumstick sambar will be my next post :)..

Ingredients:

Carrot 3(medium)
Salt to taste

For seasoning:

Oil 2 tspoon
Urad dal 1/2 tspoon
Onion/shallots 2 (chopped finely)
Mustard 1/2 tspoon
Dry red chilly 3
Curry leaves 1 sprig

For grinding:

Grated Coconut 2 tbl spoon
Redchilly Powder 1/4 tspoon
Turmeric Powder 2 pinch

Preparation:

(1) Wash carrots. Peel the outer skin. Grate it using a grater.


(2) Heat oil in a pan. Add the ingredients shown under "for seasoning" heading one by one. Now add grated carrot to it with needed salt. Mix well and saute in between.

(3) Mean while grind the ingredients shown under "for grinding" heading in a mixer without adding water. Make a coarse mixture. Keep it aside. Carrot will be cooked in 5 minutes (If you are chopping carrot to pieces instead of grating just sprinkle water over it and allow to cook by closing the pan with a lid). Now add the ground mixture to it.

(4) Mix once and switch off the pan. Close the pan with a lid and let it remain in stove for another 2 minutes. Your carrot thoran is now ready.

Have it with your rice..We had rice with muringakka sambar and this carrot thoran...
