Miriyum!

Okay, today I'm going to post a very yummy recipe! My dad is an expert at it and he learnt it from his mum apparently( who is an EXCELLENT cook!) .What makes it awesome is that it only takes 5 mins to make!! It's the perfect dish for people who can't be bothered with elaborate cooking..here goes!
What it is : Miriyum is a spicy side dish for idlis and dosas.Tastes best when it is fresh off the stove!

What you need  :
1.Chilli powder - 2 to 3 table spoons.
2.salt, to taste.
3.Curry leaves- As many as you like! But we usually use around 5 to 10.
4. Garlic- around 3 to 4 pods
5. water
6. oil- 2 to 3 tablespoons
okay, now let's start!

Step 1: Pour some oil in your frying pan. Heat it for about 3 mins.
Step 2: Put the chilli powder into the oil. You can put in more than 2 or 3 tablespoons if you have the guts :P.DO NOT stir. Leave it as it is.
Step 3:Add curry leaves and crushed garlic pods. You don't have to peel the garlic. Just crush the pods and throw them in!
Step 4:Add some salt and stir the whole thing!
Now, the curry leaves and the garlic will turn brown if they are fried in oil. To prevent this, add some water  and continue stirring.

oil+chilli powder+garlic and curry leaves+salt+ water.

After a few minutes, you'll notice oil kind of oozing out of the mixture in some places..

As you can see,oil is kind of floating on the mixture,as opposed to the previous pic which has more water.

  The oil oozing out means that you need to switch off the stove. The miriyum is done! :)
