• 500 gr peeled and diced turiya
• 1 small tomato chopped (optional)
• 4 tbsp oil
• 10 garlic cloves
• 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
• 1/4 tsp carom seeds
• 1 tsp kashmiri chilli powder

2. Warm up oil, crackle cumin and fry the chutney. Add tomatoes and the remaining spices. Mix well and cook for a minute or two. Add turiya. Combine well. Cover and cook.
3. You will see that turiya will release water as it gets cooked. Cook until the turiya is thoroughly cooked. The curry will also release oil when it gets cooked.
4. Garnish with chopped coriendar leaves and serve with rotli/bhakhri/rotla. It also goes well with khichdi.
