About Mixed Vegetable Curry Recipe:
The vegetables for this curry is purely upto your choice. You can use any combinations of vegetables you like. I love recipes that are one pot as its easy to clean after cooking. This recipe is apt when you have few of assorted leftover vegetables in stock which can be emptied easily by making this mixed veg curry. This curry is quite simple as its one pot and gets done quickly unlike other elaborate gravies.
FAQ’s :
1.What vegetables to use?
I normally use carrot, potato, peas, cauliflower, beans etc. However you can also add baby corn, sweet corn kernels etc.You can even add a handful of any of favorite legumes like chana, rajma etc. If you like paneer then add cubed paneer pieces at the end while the gravy starts to boil. If you like bellpeppers toast it seperately and then add it so that its crunchy.
2.What are the variations to mixed vegetable curry?
- I added cream for making it rich and creamy but you can replace it with milk for a low fat version.
- You can even replace cream with coconut milk or coconut cream.
- I cooked the vegetables altogether in the cooker, if you want to make it in a pan add the vegetables and cook covered until veggies turn soft.
3.What to serve mixed vegetable curry with?
- This curry goes well with most Indian Flatbreads like roti, phulka, chapathi, naan, paratha, poori, kulcha etc.
- You can serve it with rice varieties like Pulao, Plain basmati rice etc
I have used 3.5 litres Stahl Xpress Cooker. I love my new cooker as its easy to use and handle. No more worrying about burning of food as its triply. The base is so thick that you need not babysit every now and then while sauteing.
