I'm in love with Indian food, and this is my favorite recipe for veggie masala. Ingredients:
2 potatoes, peeled and cubed |
1 carrot, chopped |
10 french style green beans, chopped |
1 quart cold water |
1/2 cup frozen green pea, thawed |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric |
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1 teaspoon mustard seeds |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1 onion, finely chopped |
1 (15 ounce) can peeled whole tomatoes |
1 teaspoon garam masala |
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/2 teaspoon chili powder |
1 sprig cilantro leaf, for garnish (optional) |
Directions:
1. Place potatoes, carrots and green beans in the cold water.
2. Allow to soak while you prepare the rest of the vegetables; drain.
3. In a microwave safe dish place the potatoes, carrots, green beans, peas, salt and turmeric.
4. Cook for 8 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
6. Cook mustard seeds and cumin; when seeds start to sputter and pop, add the onion and saute until transparent.
7. Stir in the tomatoes, garam masala, ginger, garlic and chili powder; saute 3 minutes.
8. Add the cooked vegetables to the tomato mixture and saute 1 minute.
9. Cover and allow to simmer for about 20 minutes or until potatoes are nice and tender.
10. Garnish with cilatro and serve.
