YUMMY AVIAL/VEGETABLE CURRY

Ingredients:-

Potato - 1 big
Carrot - 1
Cluster Beans - 7
Yam/Cheena - 1/4 kg
Tomato - 1 big
Dal/Parippu - 1/2 cup
Curd - 3 tbsp
Oil - 2 tsp
Grated coconut - 1 1/2 cup
Green Chilli - 2 (or as per your spice level)
Cumin/Jeera - 1/2 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1 tsp
Salt - To taste

Method:-

Clean, peel, and cut the vegetables into strip of 1 inch thickness making sure all the vegetables are of the same size. Cook the veggies with 1/2 tsp of turmeric powder and dal in a pressure cooker or a pan. Once the veggies are cooked, keep them aside.

Now grind the grated coconut with 1/2 a cup of water, 1/2 tsp of turmeric powder, green chillies and 1/2 tsp of cumin seeds. No need to make it into a smooth paste, just coarsely grind it.

In a pan, mix the cooked veggies and the coconut paste, let it cook for 5 to 10 mins. Add salt to taste. Once the raw taste of coconut is gone, you can add well-beaten curd into it and give it a good stir. No need to boil it again. Switch off the flame and add 2 tsps of oil and give a good stir once again.

Serve the yummy avial hot hot with rice......
