Song is a signature dish of Konkani GSBs. This spicy tangy semi dry curry goes well with rice and daalithoi. Some also relish this with chapathis, pooris, idli derivatives and with paan polo. A simple but addictive curry, song is as important as Daalithoi or Pathrado in typical GSB's life.
Unlike the usual recipe with big potatoes boiled and chopped into small cubes, our neighbour Vinaya Shenoy made song with baby potatoes last week and gave us some sample. Vinaya is a young enthusiastic lady with a passion for cooking. Here's how she made baby potato song.
Ingredients:
Baby Potatoes - 250Gms
Onions - 100-150Gms
Kashmiri Chilli powder - 2 Tsp(Or add 1 tsp red chilli powder and 1 tsp Kashmiri chilli powder)
Salt - To taste
Tamarind extract - 2 Tsp
Coconut Oil - 2Tsp
Method:
Wash, boil and peel baby potatoes.
Chop onions finely.
Heat oil in a kadai.
Add half of the chopped onions and fry till golden brown. A
Add remaining onions and fry till transparent.
Add chilli powder, salt to taste and fry a little.
Add tamarind extract and little water.
Bring to a boil, add the potatoes and cover.
Simmer for 3-5 mins.
When the curry is semi dry, switch off the flame and serve.
