👩🍳 Tutorial Steps
Step 1: Cut the vegetables
Wash and cut the brinjals and potatoes into medium pieces. Cut drumsticks into small pieces. Peel the small onions.
Step 2: Make the special hand-mixed masala
Take chopped onions and tomatoes in a bowl. Add peanuts, coconut, coriander, turmeric, chilli powder, garam masala, and salt.
Now mix everything well with your hand. Crush the onions and tomatoes nicely until it becomes a soft dough-like paste. This is the special step that gives the curry extra taste.
Step 3: Heat the pressure cooker
Add oil. Add methi dana and hing. Let it fry for a few seconds.
Step 4: Fry the masala
Add the hand-mixed masala paste. Cook for 3–4 minutes until the raw smell goes away.
Step 5: Add vegetables
Add brinjal, potato, drumstick, and beans. Mix everything nicely.
Step 6: Pressure cook
Add a little water. Close the lid. Cook for 2 whistles.
Step 7: Serve
Let the pressure release. Open and mix gently. Serve hot with rice or chapati.
🌟 Tip
The secret taste comes from mixing the masala by hand into a dough-like paste before cooking.
