Kadai vegetables

Today I prepared Naan for breakfast... Kids requested me to prepare any gravy using paneer.. But it will make the breakfast still more heavy, since we re on Diwali feast in the last week... So I convinced them for Kadai vegetable.... But when they eat, they really loved the combination so much... I adjusted with the vegetables available in home. 

ingredients

Vegetables of your choice - two cups

( I used finely chopped carrot, beans, cauliflower, dry green peas soaked over night and cooked )

Onion- 3

Tomatoes -  4

Green chilies - 4

Red chilies - 3

Red chilli powder - 1 tsp

Coriander powder - 1 tsp

Garam masala powder - 1/2 tsp

Ginger - 1 inch

Garlic -  4 pods

Cummin seeds - 1 tsp

Coriander seeds - 1 1/2 tbs

Oil and salt as needed

Coriander leaves for decoration

Method

In high flame sauté ( in little oil )very finely chopped carrot, beans and cauliflower till they become so crispy... You will get crispy vegetables only when you sauté them in high flame... Keep the vegetables ready... If using dry green peas, soak overnight,  pressure cook nd keep aside... I don't have Cpasicum in home,,, but using capsicum to this gravy will give very nice flavour... Hence roast the Cpasicum in high flame in ghee and keep aside....

Coarsely powder the red chilies, cumin seeds and coriander seeds and keep aside.

In a Kadai add oil , add the coarse masala powder.... Then add onion and sauté well... Then add ginger, garlic and green chillies paste....sauté well....then add red chilli powder, coriander powder , turmeric powder, salt , sauté well....  Then add finely chopped tomatoes and sauté well, added cooked green peas... At this stage can add needed water and allow everything to boil well...I run handful of cooked green peas for one pulse in the mixie cup and mixed in the gravy. This will make the gravy thick and tastier too.... When everything mixed well, smear garam masala and add crispy vegetables and mix everything well and allow to cook for two minutes. Then switch off the flame..

Can decorate with coriander leaves.... Can add lemon juice otoo before decoration...
