Seyal Mani

Diksha’s Seyal Maani, also titled Sail Mani, is her Sindhi snack made with leftover rotis in a tomato-and-onion gravy. This selection uses roti and the documented blender option, with optional red mirchi.

The supplied cut onion and tomatoes are used. Oil heats in a pan with jeera, then the cut onion is sautéed briefly. The cut tomatoes cook until soft, followed by green chillies, salt, half the coriander leaves and the selected optional red mirchi.

The mixture is crushed in the selected blender and returned to the same pan. Water is added and the gravy boils until oil emerges, then more of the salt seasons it.

The supplied broken leftover rotis are added to the gravy. They soak in its hot cooking liquid until slightly mushy; the author allows the finished consistency to be drier or softer.

Lemon and the remaining coriander garnish the finished Seyal Maani.
