Valhomas Kothu Roshi

 

Making kothu roshi at home is actually really easy.  It’s also a dish that you can quickly put together by using any leftover roshi, meat and vegetables you have at hand.

Serves: 4-6

Ingredients:

  • 5 chapati (we used Kawan chapati)
  • 2 medium sized onions
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • 1 medium sized carrot
  • 2 dried red chillies
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 1 inch piece of ginger
  • 4 curry leaves
  • 2 cardamom pods
  • 1 tbsp. chicken curry powder
  • 1 ½ tbsp. tomato paste
  • ½ tsp. cumin powder
  • 1 tsp. chilli powder
  • 2 tbsp. dark soy sauce
  • 1 cup sliced valhomas
  • 1 large tomato
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil

 

Instructions:

  1. Cook the chapatis
  2. Using a knife, cut the chapatis into half inch wide strips
  3. Slice the onions
  4. Shred the cabbage, slice the valhomas, and cut the carrots into strips, our carrots were roughly 2 inches long and half a centimetre thick
  5. Chop the tomato, garlic and ginger roughly
  6. Using your mixer, blend together the tomato, dried chillies, garlic, ginger, curry leaves, seeds from the cardamom pods along with ¼ of your sliced onions
  7. Heat olive oil in a large pan and when the oil is hot enough, add the blended mixture
  8. On low heat, cook the mixture for around one minute, stirring occasionally
  9. To the pan, add the soy sauce, tomato paste, cumin powder, curry powder, and chilli powder and mix well. Do taste the sauce to see if you’d like to add a bit of salt or more chilli.
  10. Turn the heat to medium and add the sliced onions, cook them until they begin to soften
  11. Add the carrots, chapati and valhomas and mix them well into the sauce, cook until the carrots soften just a little bit, the idea is to have them crunchy
  12. Add the cabbage and give the mixture a good stir again
  13. Slide the contents in the pan to one side and add the eggs to the space you’d just made
  14. When the eggs begin to set combine it with the rest of the contents in the pan
  15. Before switching the heat off, make sure that you’ve given the mixture a good stir so that the chapatis and the vegetables can soak up the sauce

Note: Kothu has a tendency to become dry as it cools down, so it might be a good idea to serve it with a little bit of curry. And here's a recipe for a delicious chocolate biscuit pudding, just in case you need something sweet to eat afterwards.
