Mixed Vegetable Kurma


This is a simple and wonderful recipe for kurma that I got from my sister. It goes well with rice and rotis. I made it slightly thick this time but if you want more gravy just add more water after adding the vegetables to the ground masala paste.  

Mixed Vegetable Kurma



Mixed boiled vegetables - I used 2 potatoes, 2 carrots,1 cup cauliflower,1/4 cup green peas. Other vegetables that can be added are knol-knol, and beans
Salt, to taste
1/8 tsp turmeric powder
1 stick cinnamon
1 cardamom
2 cloves
2 onions

Grind to a paste
1" piece ginger
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp coriander seeds
1 green chili
1/2 coconut

Garnish
1 tomato, chopped
Handful of chopped coriander leaves

In a pan, heat oil and fry cinnamon, cardamom, cloves and onion. When onions are cooked, add ground masala paste and fry till raw smell goes, about 10 minutes. Add boiled vegetables and enough water. Bring to a boil. Simmer till gravy thickens. Garnish with tomatoes and coriander leaves.
