Mosdeng Serma Recipe (Tripura Style Tomato Chutney)
Mosdeng Serma is a popular recipe of Tripura, one of the North Eastern states of India. It is a spicy tomato chutney which is traditionally served with pork side dishes and hot steamed rice. Like most recipes of North East, this a simple recipe with basic spices but is very tasty and brings in the traditional flavours of the region. Dry red chillies are soaked in water before bringing it into the recipe here. I used green chilies along with red chillies, since I lave the flavour that it brings along when blended together. Berma or dried fish is also commonly used in traditional Mosdeng Serma Recipe. To override the tanginess, I have also used a bit of sugar, which you can skip also. Serve Mosdeng Serma Recipe (Tripura Style Tomato Chutney) with a complete meal plate of steamed rice Tripura Style Kosoi Bwtwi Recipe, Misa Maas Kordoi Tenga Recipe (Shrimp With Star Fruit Curry) and Chak-Hao Amubi Recipe (Black Rice Pudding) for lunch.
