I am sharing a simple drumstick gravy that makes a good & simple side dish. Drumsticks and potatoes are cooked in tangy spicy onion tomato gravy that tastes scrumptious with juicy drumsticks. If you are looking for a simple gravy then it may be for you since there is no grinding work. It can be accompanied with rice or roti. It is perfect to prepare on a working day. To make the drumstick recipe, you can skip using potatoes or replace them with sweet potatoes or a boiled egg as well. I haven’t used any garam masala. if you desire you can use 1 tsp coriander powder and 1/2 tsp garam masala.

Preparation

  1. Heat oil in a pan. Add curry leaves, mustard and jeera. When they splutter add onions and green chilies. Fry till they turn slightly transparent. They need not turn golden.
  2. Add chopped drumsticks and potatoes. Fry on high heat for 2 to 3 mins. This is done to bring out the flavors of drumstick.
  3. Add tomatoes, salt and turmeric. Fry till the tomatoes turn mushy. Remember fry and do not cook by closing the lid. The taste would be completely different by covered cooking.
  4. Add red chili powder. Mix well. Fry till the raw smell of chili powder goes away. This takes about 2 to 3 mins. You can also add coriander powder along with chili powder.
  5. Pour enough water to immerse the drumsticks.  I added 3 cups of water. You can also add coriander powder at this stage. Cover and cook on a low to medium flame till the drumsticks are fully cooked. The longer the drumsticks are simmered on a low to medium flame the more tasty the drumstick gravy would be. Serve drumstick potato gravy hot with rice or roti. Related Recipes
