Radish Subzi / Radish Curry

    Radish is not one of my favorite, as a child. I reluctantly prepared this curry when I heard the recipe from a friend and to my surprise found it to be perfect and scrumptious. A very big Thanks to her in initiating me to incorporate this healthy vegetable in our menu. This turned to be a great accompaniment for rice. This is how I made it.

Ingredients
 

Radish chopped to small pieces - 3 cups
Oil - 1 tbsp
Chana dal - 1 tsp
Urud dal - 1 tsp

Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
Mustart seeds - 2 tsp
Asafoetida - 1 pinch
Onions chopped finely - 1/2
Cumin powder - 1 tsp
Corriander powder - 2 tsp
Red chili powder - 2 tsp
Ginger and garlic paste - 1 tsp
Salt as per taste
 

Recipe

1) Heat oil in a pan, splutter chana dal, urud dal, cumin seeds and mustard seeds. Once done add the asoefoetida.
2) Now add the onions and fry for 2-3 minutes.
3) Add in the ginger garlic paste and mix thoroughly.
3) Then add the cumin powder, coriander powder, red chili powder and mix nicely for about a minute.
4) Then add the chopped radish and salt and cook nicely for about 10-15 minutes by mixing occasionally.
5) Garnish with coriander leaves.

Tips

1) You can also micro-oven or steam cook the radish for 7- 8 minutes, if you are short of time. Follow the same recipe above but once you add the radish cook nicely for 2-3 minutes only, till all the spices mix.
