Yendem (I have no idea what its called in English) is quite a popular vegetable in Manipur. Yemdem kangsoi and Yendem eromba are two of the most popular Meitei dish, two types of yemdem are found in Mnaipur the green one and the black one. The more popular one is the green one and for some reason I don't like the color of black yemdem, below is the picture of yendem and ingredients for Yemdem Eromba
Ingredients:
- 1-2 yemdem.
- Dried Red Chillies
-Aloo (I used the small red ones)
-Koli Hawai Maru (Fresh Rajma not the socked one)
-Ngari
-Fried fish (opitional)
-Salt to Taste
Method:
-Wash all the ingredients and make round slices of Yendem.
- Put all the ingredients (Yemdem, aloo, koli hawai maro and red chillies) in a pressure cooker, add 1 cup of water.
-Wait till three whistle and let it cool down.
- Steam the Ngari and fried fish (Optional)
- Prepare a paste of Ngari, fried fish, boiled red chillies and salt.
- Mix the paste with the boiled ingredients and mix it well.
- Garnish with spring onion and have with rice.
