Mixed Vegetable with Mustard

Last night while I was looking to make some vegetables, I found a bit of everything in the fridge without anything standing out. That's when I thought of making mixed vegetables but a little bit differently than I usually do. Here is the recipe.

Ingredients:

2 Potatoes cubed

1 1/2 cup of each of the following vegetables, diced- pumpkin, ridged gourd, parval or pointed gourd (you can add as many variety as you want)

1 tbsp ginger paste

4 green chilies

1/2 cup sliced onion

1 tbsp yoghurt

1 tsp poppy seeds

2 tsp mustard seeds

1 tsp paanch phoron

Salt per taste

2 tsp turmeric powder

Oil as required

Recipe:

• Make a paste of poppy seeds, mustard seeds and the yogurt
• Heat the oil, add paanch phoron
• After it starts spluttering add the ginger paste to saute
• Add green chilies
• Add potatoes, add salt and turmeric, fry lightly, cover and cook for 2 minutes
• Add vegetables one by one in order of time required to cook the veggies, longer to shorter. Keep adding salt and turmeric as needed
• Add the yogurt- poppy seed- mustard paste when the vegetables are 80% done
• Cover and cook for 3/4 minutes
• You can add ghee if you like
