Hi all, I hope all of you are doing fine in such troubled times. The recipe I share today is from my mother's kitchen. This recipe has very few steps but the end result is restaurant-style masala curry. Let's get straight to it.
INGREDIENTS
FOR GRAVY
Tomatoes: 2 medium
Fresh Coriander ( Cilantro): 1/2 cup chopped or half a bunch washed
Ginger: About quarter-sized
Dhania seeds ( Coriander seeds): 1 Tsp
Cashews: 5-10 soaked in water for 10 minutes
Red Chilli: 1-2
Cumin Seeds: 1 tsp
Salt: 1/4th tsp
VEGETABLES Vegetables needed to be boiled with 1/4th salt: Carrots, cauliflower, Potatoes, Peas, Green pepper if needed, Paneer if available
OTHERS
Oil, Butter, Cumin seeds (1 tsp), Turmeric powder( 1/4th Tsp), Dhania-jeera powder (1 tsp), Water: 1/2 cup and salt.
MAKING
Boil the vegetables with salt and set aside, Grind the ingredients mentioned above under "For Gravy" and set aside. In a pan, add 1 Tbsp oil, add cumin seeds, then add the gravy, saute for 3-4 minutes in low flame before adding in the boiled vegetables. Saute for a few minutes, then add the Dhania-Jeera powder, salt, and water. Close the lid and allow the masala to cook for about 4-5 minutes in medium flame. That is it, garnish it with a dollop of butter on top, delicious veg masala curry is ready. Believe me, it tastes delicious and it's very quick to make.
TIPS/VARIATIONS
You could add 1/2 Tsp Garam Masala powder in the end if needed, you could add garlic to the gravy ingredients, I usually don't. The cashews make sure the gravy is balanced and you could a good texture.
