How to make the kurma

Wash and chop the vegetables. MW for 10 mins. Keep it aside.

Heat a nonstick pan, saute the onions along with curry leaves till the onions start turning colour.

Then add the tomato puree. Add the chili powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder. Cook till the spices are cooked and oil comes out.

Now drain the water from the vegetables. Just add the vegetables, save the water for last.

Once you are done cooking for 5 mins, add the ground masala, and cook well.

Now add the water from the boiled vegetables and more depending on how much gravy you want.

Bring to boil and simmer for 10 mins

Serve with Sannas / Idlis / Chapatis

Note:

This kurma turned out better than what I had thought. It serves with rotis and dosa/idli as well.
