This original Kadai Veg gravy post was written in 2013.Updating the post with latest fool proof recipe and step wise pics today ☺️.I followed almost a similar recipe today with very few modifications but it kind of lacked finesse then. Comparing the two pics from 2013 and 2019 am extremely happy to see that I have tremedously improved as a cook. Lot of learnings and inspiration from watching cookery shows, IG accounts, blogs, youtube tutorials has helped me in this transformation..More than validation from others acknowledging our own achievements and to keep working towards bigger goals is the best motivation one can get.
Coming back to Kadai Veg gravy, Sundays are usually meant for fullmeals with Sambar,Kari, Koottu etc Or Veg Biryani/Pulao/Fried Rice/Naam with gravies 🙂 Today I wasn’t in a mood to make elaborate lunch. Prepared this rich veg gravy and we had it with plain rice. A simple combo but it was so delicious and comforting. Have used generous amount of oil and ghee. Incase if you are health consious you can cut down the measurement according to your preference.Also have used veggies that was available at home today. You can other veggies, paneer and even Tofu too to enhance the gravy
