Cooking web notes

Potatoes are always our favourite veggies, they have their own place in my vegetable basket..Its has been a long i prepared kurma with potatoes and tomatoes, as i bought some juicy ripen tomatoes which are sitting sadly in my fridge asking me to turn them something delicious i wanted to combine both potatoes and tomatoes to make this delicious gravy..Usually i always makes potato kurma without using coconut milk and make a paste using fried grams and spices, this time i didnt went for them and completely replaced them with coriander powder, grounded tomato paste,fennel seed powder and thick coconut milk to making this droolworthy kurma, this kurma goes terribly awesome along with rice, rotis,any breakfast dishes and simply with toasted bread slices..Sending this delicious kurma to Akila's Dish Name Starts With A along with Avocado Icecram,Apple Paniyaram & Amaranth Stalks,Oats & Channadal Stirfry and to Healing Foods-Tomato guest hosted by PJ, event by Siri and finally to this month's CWS-Fennel Seeds hosted by myself and finally to Lubna's Joy of Fasting to Feasting..
