Khatti Meethi Kaddu ki Sabji ( Sweet & Tangy Pumpkin Veggie)

I have a special love for Kaddu ki Sabji 🙂 And I love the one Mom makes the most, full of flavours!!
A little sweet to the palate and then a little citrus, to have it with plain fulka (whole wheat Indian Flat Bread) or mix it along with Dal (Lentils) and rice!
We cooked mixed herbs with potato veggie, kaddu ki sabji and Boondi Raita along with fulkas for lunch the previous day, posting the Pumpkin veggie here. There’s no much gushing about it, i’ll just straight away come to the recipe now.
