Bor'or Tenga (Tomato Medley Sour Curry with Red Lentil & Turmeric Fritters)

Bor'or Tenga (Tomato Medley Sour Curry with Red Lentil & Turmeric Fritters)

A typical summer recipe in Assam, India. Bor'or Tenga is a red lentil curry where Bor means pakoda or fritters and Tenga means sour in Assamese. Soft & fluffy red lentil fritters are cooked in a sour curry made of juicy sour tomatoes, boiled potatoes and squeezed green lime juice for extra tartness.


~ Gather Your Ingredients ~

Tomatoes used - 1 Cour de Boeuf tomato, 1 San Marzano & 1 Italian Marinda
1 Green lime
2 tsp Lakadong Turmeric [Add to cart]
1 Potato (Large, boiled)
1 Green chilli
1/2 tsp Mustard seeds (for tempering)
1/2 tsp Fenugreek seeds (for tempering)
Mustard oil
Salt to taste
1 cup Red lentils
Coriander for garnish

~ Preparation Instructions ~

1. Soak the red lentils in water for at least 2-3 hours.

2. Drain the water, then add the lentils in a grinder and make a smooth paste, add a tbsp or two of water. Add 1 tsp turmeric & salt to the paste and mix well.

3. Heat a pan over high heat and add about 2 tbsp mustard oil. Once hot, add 1 tbsp sized lentil paste scoops to the oil. Fry one-by-one until crisp and golden. Set the fritters aside over a tissue to drain out excess oil.

4. In the same pan, add another tablespoon of mustard oil. Once the oil is hot, add the mustard & fenugreek seeds until it pops, then add the chopped tomatoes and sauté until the water evaporates.

5. Add the potatoes, 1 tsp turmeric & salt to taste and stir well.

6. Add few tbsps of water or as required to bring the curry to your desired consistency. Half a lime and squeeze the juice in to the curry. Now gently add the lentil fritters and bring the curry to simmer. 

7. Garnish with a handful of fresh coriander.
