Week 2 Day 3 of BM #61 -
Here is a simple combination of kala chana and zucchini which can be made in under 20 minutes if boiled chana is on hand. I had to improvise this as I needed to increase the quantity of the sabji :).
A sample menu of my typical lunch..French Cut Beans Curry, Kala Chana - Zucchini Curry, Roti, Rice and Yogurt.
Ingredients -
Kala Chana soaked over night and boiled 1 cup
Onion chopped 1/2 cup
Zucchini grated 1 cup
Tomato chopped 1/2 cup
Tomato Paste 1 tsp
Turmeric 1/4 tsp
Ginger-Garlic-Green Chili Paste as needed
Dhania Powder 1 tsp
Salt as needed
Garam masala 1/2 tspSeasoning (Oil 1 Tbsp, Cumin seeds 1/2 tsp)
Method Of Preparation -
In a heated pan, add oil and cumin seeds.
After the cumin seeds crackle, fry the onions until they are translucent. Add in the ginger-garlic-green chili paste. Fry for a few minutes and add tomato and tomato paste along with 1/4 cup of water.
Sprinkle turmeric and dhania powder. Let the mixture cook for a few minutes.
Add the grated zucchini, cover and let it cook until tender.
Add the boiled kala chana and adequate salt.
Cover and let it simmer for a few minutes.
Remove and serve it with Roti/Rice.
