About Mixed Veg Curry

Indian restaurants offer a creamy fragrant vegetable Korma or buttery nutty flavoursome mix Veg version called Navratan korma ( Navratan means 9 gems). Such mixed vegetable curries are deceptively decadent and secretly healthy, packed with veggies like carrots, peas, potatoes, tomatoes and bell peppers, all in a silky sauce of milk cream or coconut milk, ginger, garlic, cumin and turmeric.

Certain mix veg korma recipes are inspired from Mughal cuisine like the Dum Aloo prepared on slow flame with baby potatoes or the semi-dry mix Veg Jalfrezi.


Restaurant based Mixed Veg Curry

Indian restaurants serve many different varieties of vegetarian vegetable dishes like Mix veg kofta where vegetable dumplings are cooked and simmered in onion-tomato gravy. Pav Bhaji is a tangy spicy mixture of nutritious seasonal vegetables served with bread or Pav. Certain mix- veg dishes are widely prepared during the festive season without adding onion and garlic, that are served as a part of the pooja or vrat thali like the Annakoot sabzi prepared on Diwali and Navratan sabzi, made in the north- India with veggies, nuts and dry fruits as a religious offering.


Homemade Mixed Veg Curry

At home, one requires a variety of vegetables and basic spices like turmeric, coriander, garam masala, and green chilli, that keeps the dish mildly spiced. Dry Fenugreek leaves or freshly cut cilantro leaves can be added to the mixed veg curry to get the fresh aroma. The basic ingredients used for making the gravy are tomato, onion and ginger.


How to serve?

Mixed Vegetable Curry is a delicious and healthy curry recipe which can be eaten with Indian bread like chapatti or paratha or poori, or it can be taken with rice dishes like jeera rice and lemon rice. [Poori or puri, a puffy Indian fried bread is considered appropriate for certain varieties of curry mix vegetable dishes like veg korma.] Or one can have mix veg curry and a side dish like dal tadka with plain rice as a dinner option.
