Just recently I had posted/shared ridge gourd/heerekayi steamed dumplings recipe which I innovated. So when I made it repeatedly I also thought of transforming those steamed dumplings into a kind of palya/subji.
Which perhaps turns out into our own Karnataka special, traditional recipe – matawadi palya ! Hope you all remember that I had mentioned earlier about this idea of mine in the ridge gourd/heerekayi steamed dumplings post
So Went ahead and tried the same and is a big hit at my place now, which is also a diabetic friendly dish/recipe. Especially during summer this palya/subji turns out to be a soulful food if made along with anna, tili saaru (rice, rasam).
You can eat this protein rich diabetic friendly dish as such for breakfast as well. So gladly sharing the recipe which is an awesome addition to our own Karnataka special dish matawadi palya list
Just go ahead and prepare it as we are getting lot of ridge gourd in the market right now. If dumplings are ready then… it won’t take much time to prepare this palya/subji, it will be ready in 5 minutes.
In this same method I have also made sorekayi/bottle gourd nuchhinunde and matwadi palya with a small twist ie…. have added about 1/4 cup of grated raw mango to make tangy and it was yummy. Please do check below for the process pics.
Ingredients :
- nuchhinunde/steamed dumplings – 10 nos., (Please click on the name ⇐ to get the dumplings recipe)
- Oil – 1 tsp
- mustard seeds – 1/2 tsp
- Cumin seeds – 1/2 tsp (optional, I don’t put)
- Curry leaves – few
- Coriander leaves – 2 tbsp
- Grated fresh coconut – 1 cup (the more we put the greater will be the taste)
- Salt – a little to balance the taste
PROCEDURE :
- Heat oil in a pan, add in mustard seeds, (cumin seeds -if using) curry leaves and allow them to splutter
- Now add crushed nuchhinunde/steamed dumplings to the pan and saute continuously on high for a minute or two
- Add in grated fresh coconut, check for the salt and mix everything well while stirring
- Remove from the fire and sprinkle coriander leaves
- Further use as you wish
