Achari Vegetable


It's been a while i updated my blog. Life has become very hectic and everything is going in a fast forward mode. Its always running....But i am enjoying my fast phase of life as of now. Was at home for long after i had my girls and now they are big enough to manage by themselves i started going to work. But i never compromise on what food i give my girls and what we both eat. I make it a point to give fresh food for my kids and include a fruit everyday in diet. Most of the time i cut my veggies and i wake up early and cook. And weekends i cook a lot and we have a feast during the weekends. But kids insists that they want to eat out so mostly saturday evenings we eat out and it is mostly macdonalds take away.

I love to cook mixed vegetables curries and fries. I had achari masala which i made for achari paneer and i used that same masala in this curry.The achari masala can be found here Here goes the recipe:-


Ingredients:-

Capsicum 4 chopped into big slices
Onion 2 chopped into 8 pieces each
Cauliflower 1
Tomato 1 chopped into big pieces
Ginger 1'' pc chopped finely
Garlic 2 chopped finely
Achari masala 3 tbsp
Green chilies silted 2
Oil 2 tbsp
Salt to taste

Method:-

Take oil in a non-stick kadai. When hot add oil.

Add ginger and garlic. Saute until they are light brown in colour.

 Then add onions and green chilies.

Saute for just half a second and add all the veggies.

Sprinkle salt and cook covered.

The veggies will get cooked in their own water.

Don't saute much and it avoids breaking of the veggies.

Once you think the veggies are soft and cooked sprinkle achari masala.

Now don't cover and let it cook until oil oozes out .

Serve hot with roti.
