Few days back, came across someone’s recipe which looked like a make over to our own Karnataka’s age old, traditional, authentic rice dish called Puliyogare (tamarind rice) by adding a vegetable to it.

So even I felt like trying it out right away and made this Vegetable Puliyogare by adding brinjal and surprisingly it tastes superb only, We were little skeptical but it tasted nice and I think from now on I would make it anytime

However the basic Puliyogare gojju is needed to prepare this dish, So you can make the fresh Puliyogare gojju then and there only or you can also use the already prepared one if you have it stored in your refrigerator. Either couple of days before you prepare the gojju and keep it ready in advance or first Prepare the Puliyogare gojju freshly and then continue with this recipe

Did you know…. we can also add the sourness to the Puliyogare gojju by putting raw mango, tomato, amla etc. Here you can check those recipes Raw mango Puliyogare , tomato(Puli)gare and one more idea is running in my mind, first I shall make it, taste it and then will share it with you all

Gojjina chitrannada Pudi/Powder and chitrannada gojju, which has a video demonstration as well are also kind of similar recipes you can find here on my blog.

And the latest, newest and my own created recipes are – Paneer Puliyogare and Makhana/Lotus seeds Puliyogare of which you should definitely have a look and also I insist you to try out at least once

Ingredients : measuring cup used – 250 ml

Cooked rice – 2 cups
Brinjal, cut lengthwise – 1&1/2 to 2 cups (adjust)
Puliyogare gojju – 3 to 4 tbsp (adjust)
Salt – to taste

For tempering :

Oil – 1&1/2 tbsp
Mustard seeds – 1/2 tsp
White/Black sesame seeds – 1 tsp
Split bengal gram – 1 tbsp
Split black gram – 1/2 tbsp
turmeric powder – 1/2 tsp
Curry leaves – 2 sprigs
Roasted Peanuts – 1/4 cup

PROCEDURE :

I prepared the Puliyogare gojju right away just before making this ice dish, That is the reason why my Pan/Karahi looks like this

To begin with heat oil, Put mustard seeds, sesame seeds, bengal gram, black gram, turmeric powder and curry leaves, let these splutter

Now put lengthwise cut brinjal and saute everything until brinjal turns slightly soft, put required amount of salt, mix again. Do not cook it too soft but keep it crunchy

Now reduce the heat, put Puliyogare gojju to the brinjal mixture, saute together while mixing everything well and turn off the heat

Put cooked rice, salt required for the rice and roasted peanuts, mix everything well and serve

As such no accompaniment is needed, but if you wish you can pair this dish along with Papad or any kind of raita or ban a na rasayana or curd rice
