Ingredients

3

8 pieces Tinde / round gourd

1 teaspoon Cumin seeds

quarter teaspoon Asafoetida

half teaspoon Turmeric powder

2 pieces Tomatoes

half inch Ginger

2 pieces Green chili

1 teaspoon Coriander powder

half teaspoon Red chili powder

half teaspoon Fennel seeds

half teaspoon Anardana powder or chaat masala

2 tbsp Oil

Tips

Add a few curry leaves when sautéing the ginger and chili for an enhanced aroma.

You can add diced potatoes to the sabji for a richer texture and taste.

Directions

Peel and dice the tinde into medium-sized cubes. Finely chop the tomatoes, ginger, and green chili.

In a pan, heat vegetable oil on medium flame. Once the oil is hot, add cumin seeds and let them splutter.

Add a pinch of asafoetida, followed by ginger and green chili. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.

Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until they turn soft. Stir in the turmeric powder, coriander powder, and red chili powder.

Toss in the diced tinde, mix everything well, and cook for 3-4 minutes on medium heat.

Cover the pan and let the sabji cook on low flame for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cook until the tinde are soft but not mushy.

Once cooked, sprinkle coarsely crushed fennel seeds and anardana powder or chaat masala. Adjust the salt according to taste and mix well. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Turn off the heat and let the sabji rest for a minute before serving. Pair it with roti, paratha, or rice for a wholesome meal.
