Jyothi, I love Gorruchikkudu very much. My GM use to make it specially for me. Your looks almost like her. I too make it two ways with tomatoes and the other stir fry. Sometimes I add potatoes too in the stir fry. Next time I visit the Indian Grocery Store I should remember to add these to my shopping list.
