While dining out, a typical north Indian vegetarian would pick one Paneer curry, a Dal and then more often than not it would be Mix-veg! 😀
Just a general observation!!
How about replicating the same style mix-veg that you’d order in a restaurant? 🙂
Sounds like a good idea?
Let’s do it then.
What’s the best part about a mix-veg!!
It lets a picky eater eat ample veggies in one dish. I like adding a variety to mine. So shall we head to the recipe without much ado. 🙂
Recipe:
Serves – 4
Ingredients:
Veggies-
15-18 medium sized cauliflower florets
1/2 cup french beans (diagonally cut, lengthwise)
1/2 cup carrot (cut into roundels)
1/2 cup corn (fresh or frozen)
1/2 cup peas (fresh or frozen)
1 medium sized potato (cut into wedges)
1 cup paneer (small cubes)
2 green chillies slit

2 medium sized tomatoes (finely chopped)
2-3 garlic cloves (finely chopped)
1 inch ginger grated
handful of fresh coriander leaves for garnish

Salt to taste

Method:
Take a heavy bottom wok.
Heat oil in it, add hing and cumin seeds
Add garlic, onion and ginger. Saute them on high flame till they brown.
Add all the dry spices. Make sure you add salt only a little bit for now.
Roast all the spices well for about 2-3 minutes on medium flame.
Add tomatoes and green chillies. Saute till the oil leaves the sides of the wok.
Now add in all the other veggies and add salt , give them a quick stir.
Cover the wok with a lid and put it to low-medium flame.
Let the veggies cook till tender, keep checking in between.
When you see all the veggies have softened and are well cooked, uncover the wok and set the flame to high.
Saute all the veggies for about 2-3 minutes on high.
Turn off the flame, transfer them to your serving bowl/platter and garnish with fresh coriander leaves.
Serve with a bread of your choice.
