Mushroom- Spring Onions Songa (Spciy Curry) served with Ukde Tandla Sheva (Boiled Rice Idiyappam).


"Mushroom- Spring Onions Songa (Spciy Curry) served with Ukde Tandla Sheva (Boiled Rice Idiyappam)" ... songa served with shevai is famous combination from GSB Konkani Saraswat Cuisine ... here is a scrumptious combination of mushroom songa with shevai ... tastes excellent ... Yummilicious ....

** All those who follow my simple blog with home cooked delicacies are aware that “Songa” is not actually a singing song but a spicy GSB Konkani Saraswat dish that I have posted many times in various combinations both in Veg and Non.Veg. ways. The recipe for all songa is same except for few variations in preparation. You just need to change the pattern of cooking at times depending upon the veggies. I prepared this dish with White button mushroom and spring onions both of which are easily available. To bring in the tartness I have used tomato ground into puree. Songa always tastes best served with shevai/ string hoppers/ idiyappam which is one of the most loved combination in my community.

** Shevai is the most famous breakfast dish of Amchi’s. There are many types of shevai prepared with various combinations. Shevai can be prepared using white or red ukda rice and also normal surti kolam eice, wheat, nachani etc. but the preparations vary a bit from each other. Shevai can be sun dried too for later use. However, the freshly prepared shevai with Ukdo Tandul ie White Boiled Rice is the most favorite in my home. A little bit tedious to prepare as it needs proper soaking, grinding fine then thickening, preparing into balls and then steaming and pressing with shevai machine. However the taste especially when served with equally delicious dishes makes it worthwhile.

** Do try out this combination and enjoy with your family and friends, you can serve the mushroom curry with any dish of your choice, like dal- chawal, roti, parathas, poori, dosa (panpolo) etc. I assure you shevai (idiyappam) etc is the best combo. I have already posted the method of preparing ukda rice shevai and mushroom spring onion songa as different post in the blog for easier access to future references. Here I am sharing links to both tandla shevai (rice idiyappam) and mushroom- spring onions songa/ spicy curry it is served with. If you liked this combination, do drop in a comment and let me know, it really makes my effort that much more worthwhile and inspires me to do more. Thanking each one of you for the support extended always.
