Drumstick curry -Drumsticks and peas cooked in a tangy tomato sauce

Drumstick curry- Drumstick is among the few vegetables which are never used in my mothers house and not even in my community,may be drumstick was not easily available in my home town at that time.

The only time I use drumsticks was when I make sambhar and sindhi kadhi. I have seen many recipe on the net but wanted to try something to suite our taste,so just tried this yesterday and it taste great,so now will making this often.

    I have a huge tree in my garden and use drumsticks for thin curries and daals, off course sambar as well. Never had in such a thick curry. It is very healthy..
