Carrot Koora or Carrot Curry

Carrot and Tomato Koora or Carrot and Tomato Curry

Well, this dish is midway between a salad and a koora/curry. I like it for its simplicity and the fact that it is so very easy to make. For me easy-to-make is a must on weekdays, as I often have to cook and run to work! I have this carrot curry tastes with rotis or just by itself as a salad.
