Mixed vegetable koorma / curry


Ingredients :

Potato : 1
Onion : 1
Tomato : 1
Drum sticks : about 20 pieces
green peas : 1 cup
cauliflower : 1 cup
Ginger garlic paste : 1 tsp
chana dal : 1 tsp
urad dal : 1 tsp
mustard seeds : 1 tsp
cumin seeds : 1 tsp
curry leaves : few
chopped corriander leaves : 1/2 cup
raw corriander powder : 1 tsp
cloves : 2
cardamom pod : 1
cinamon stick : 1" piece
bay leaf : 1
dry coconut powder : 1 tsp
red chilli powder : 1 tsp
salt : 3/4 tsp
oil : 1 tbsp
Wash and peel the potato , cut it into small bite size pieces and put in cold water so that it does not change its color. Chop the onions and tomatoes and keep them aside. Clean the cauliflower and cut into big florets and place aside.

Now take a wide mouthed pan and pour the oil into it and let it heat. Put the mustard seeds allow them to splutter. Put in the bay leaf, cloves, cardamom and the cinamon stick. Also put in the chana dal, urad dal cumin seeds and curry leaves in the same order. Mix once. put in the onions and turmeric powder and cook till the onions turn translucent. Add the ginger garlic paste, potatoes, cauliflower, peas and the corriander powder. Keep mixing to avoid burning. Once the onions are brown in color add the tomato and cook till all the veges are cooked properly. (U can keep a lid and keep mixing in between to do this). Add in the red chilli powder coconut and salt. Now add the cooked drumsticks and mix well. Finally add the chopped corriander leaves and serve hot either with chapatis or rice.

If u want to have more gravy add another tomato, adjust the seasoning and little water while cooking. Drumsticks should be cooked for a while in salted water so that they do not taste bad and uncooked.
