I learned this recipe from Srirangam Radhu mami's video and adjusted it according to my taste.




Ingredients

Drumstick - 1
Tomato - 4
Tamarind - Marble size
Chilly Powder - 1 -2 Teaspoon
Kashmiri chilly poder - 1/2 Teaspoon(optional)
Kulambu Milagai Thool - 1/2 Teaspoon (optional)

Fenugreek seeds - 1/2 Teaspoon
Onion - 1
Garlic - 4-5 Flakes

Method

1. Cut the drumstick , take them in a glass bowl, add a teaspoon of water, cover and cook in microwave for  5  minutes. If we use any other vegetable like brinjal or okra, we can avoid this step.
2.Heat oil in a pan and season with mustard, fenugreek seeds and curry leaves.
3.Add onions and crushed garlic and fry them till they become brown.
5.Add chopped tomatoes, little salt and fry them till the oil seperates. This is the most important step in this recipe.It will take around 7-8 minutes.

7.Add cooked drumstick pieces and coat them with masala.
8.Add tamarind juice with 1 cup of water. When it is boiling, add boiled and slitted eggs.
10.Add salt to taste and let it simmer till it reaches the desired consistency.
11.Add jaggery and switch off the stove.
12.Serve hot with rice.
