Vegetable Saagu

      A quick recipe which can be prepared during the busy weekdays.. it tastes great with Poori (click here for poori recipe). Kids love this recipe and its a healthy way to feed vegetables to them...it's also very mild in flavours as it doesn't have any strong spices added.


Ingredients:

Beans chopped - 1/2 cup
Carrot chopped - 1/2 cup
Potato (1 med size) chopped
Green peas - 1/2 cup
Onion (1 med size) chopped
Green chillies - 2
Fried Bengal gram - 1/4 cup
Grated coconut - 1/4 cup
Coriander chopped - 1/4 cup
Curry leaves - 2 stalks
Oil for tempering
Salt for taste
Mustard seeds -1/2 tsp
Asafoetida - 1 pinch


Method:

Heat water in a pan and add all the chopped vegetables to it until they are just cooked. Also add half of chopped onion and one stalk of curry leaves into the pan.. let the vegetables soak in onion and curry leaves flavour.

Meanwhile grind coconut, chilles, fried Bengal gram, half onion and coriander together with little water to form a paste.

Once the vegetables are cooked add the ground masala to it. If required add more water as it's going to thicken because of coconut and bengal gram. Add salt and mix well.

Cook for 5 more minutes till the gravy thickens and then temper it with mustard seeds, curry leaves and asafoetida .

Enjoy with some hot Pooris...


Happy Cooking !!
