Vegetable Sabzi

Today I prepared this Sabzi, its so simple and pairs well with chapathi's. ideal to pack for Lunch box. overall a healthy one too. once i happened to buy a sabzi masala from a North Indian Restaurant, ever since iam hooked to that masala. but after the masala got over i mix chilli powder, garam masala and kasuri methi as a substitute for sabzi masala. it works good too. but iam desperate in knowing what all go into sabzi masala. so any one reading this know sabzi masala please share with me.

Ingredients:

Carrot- 1
Tomato - 1
Green Peas - 1/4 cup
Beans - 10

Turmeric Powder - a pinch
Garam Masala - 1/4 tsp
Kasuri Methi /Dry Methi Leaves - 2 tsp's

Curry Leaves - 1 sprig

Method:

Chop the vegetables into small pieces.

Heat Oil in a Pan, add cumin and let it get roasted, add curry leaves.

Add Finely Chopped Tomatoes to the pan, Let the tomatoes shrink and mash them on the pan with the slotted spoon. add turmeric powder, chilli powder, garam masala and salt to taste. mix the masala well with the tomatoes.

Add the chopped vegetables to the pan, mix the veggies well with the tomatoes and the masala. add kasuri methi and give a mix.

sprinkle 2 tsp's of water over the pan and close the pan with its lid. let the vegetable's simmer in slow flame for about 5 -10 minutes till the vegetables get half-way cooked. as i dont like over cooking the vegetables i just gave 5 mins.
