PEACH GOJJU

Returned after a lovely 4 week vacation in India. Even as we were driving back from the airport decided to pick up some grocery staples..bread milk and you have it. Also picked up some lovely peaches, all golden with the lovely pink blush on them that I so love. But alas, they only looked good..they were so sour I almost got a toothache! And there was born my Peach Gojju on the very first week after my return accompanied by jet lag and all!

PEACH GOJJU

6-7 peaches, sour if they may be
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
1 tsp urad dal
2 red chillies
2 green chillies
1 sprig curry leaves
2 to 3 cups of water
2-3 tsp sambar powder
Lime sized piece of jaggery
1 tsp oil
salt to taste.

Chop these to 1 inch pieces. Heat the oil and add to it seasoning of mustard seeds, urad dal, 2 split red chillies and methi seeds(fenugreek).
When the mustard seeds spluter and the urad dal turns reddish, add 2 green chillies, curry leaves and the peach pieces.
Allow to cook, adding very little water if necessary.
Once the peaches are tender and assimilated, add 2 cups of water to it.
As it boils, add 2-3 tsp sambar powder, salt and a big piece of jaggery .
Let cook very well and Enjoy.
