Mixed Vegetable Curry (No Onion, No Garlic)

This kind of curry without Onion and Garlic is useful when we need to prepare some curry as offering (naivedyam) to God. I typically make this when we perform any puja at home. It is also a pleasant side dish to make when having guests over for an informal lunch/dinner. 

This is definitely a god send when the invitees don't eat onion and / or garlic. This curry goes well both with Roti and Rice. Thanks to my cousin, Mallika, for sharing this recipe!

Check it out for Day 3 Week 1 of BM #27.

Ingredients - 

Chayote Squash / Chow Chow 2 cups
Carrots 1 cup
Beans 1/2 cup
Peas Handful
Salt as needed
Turmeric 1/4 tsp
Pomegranate seeds for garnish handful (Optional)
Seasoning (Oil 1 Tbsp, Chana Dal 1 tsp, Urad Dal 1 tsp, Cumin seeds 1/4 tsp, Mustard seeds 1/2 tsp, Curry leaves few)
To Grind - 
Coconut 3 Tbsp (fresh,dry or frozen)
Poppy Seeds 2 Tbsp (soaked in 2 Tbsp of water for easy grinding)
Green Chillies 2-3 (or as needed)
Coriander leaves handful
Ginger 1/2 inch


Mixed Vegetable Curry (No Onion, No Garlic)

Method Of Preparation -

In a wok/kadai, heat oil and prepare the seasoning by adding all the dals, cumin, mustard seeds and curry leaves. 

After the mustard seeds pop, add all the vegetables and turmeric. Cover and let the vegetables cook until tender (about 12-15 min).

Meanwhile, grind all the ingredients listed under 'to grind' to a fine paste.

Add this paste to the partially cooked vegetables and let the flavors mix well. Also sprinkle salt to taste.

Remove from fire and garnish with pomegranate seeds and / or coriander leaves.

  25. The poppy seeds and coconut will do the cover up operation for onion and garlic. We normally use nuts and khoya to make it Jain.
