Bombay chutney / Besan flour kurma

 I don’t know why this kurma is called as Bombay chutney. It is a excellent side dish for idli and dosa.

  This dish comes to rescue when we don't have any veggies to make the side dish for breakfast. It is a dish which can be made in a hurry.

 I like this kurma with idli and dosa most. Some are serving it with poori also , i didn't tried that combo yet.

 It is simple and easy to make with few ingredients.

Requirements :

Besan flour – ¼ cup

Onion – 1

Green chilly – 2 -3

Curry leave – a sprig

Tomato - 1

Oil – 1 tsp

Mustard seeds – ¼ tsp

Method :

Mix the besan flour with two and half cup of water without lumps.

 Add the besan mixture and the turmeric powder and mix well.
