Gajbaje ( Mixed Vegetables Inwards Kokosnoot Gravy)

The give-and-take "Gajbaje" literally way "mix-up" inwards the konkani language. I recall that is a real apt nurture for this rather pop tradional konkani side-dish. This dish is a go-to when you lot pick out footling fighting of this as well as footling fighting of that in your fridge/pantry but non plenty quantity to brand a consummate dish amongst 1 unmarried vegetable as well as you lot desire to move it earlier it goes bad! This dish is also usually used during holy days or festival days when nosotros practise non use/cook/consume onion or garlic inwards our food. It is actually a slow dish as well as salubrious too. I promise you lot guys endeavor it as well as similar it!

Servings: 4

For the tempering:
Coconut oil: 1 tsp

Cooking made easy:

Almost whatever vegetable could last used for this dish. Again, this dish is a perfect way to larn rid of the footling fighting of leftover vegetables.

Just ensure that you lot practise non overcook the vegetables otherwise the dish volition plow into mush!

Cook the vegetables over the stove-top inwards a pot. To salvage time, I move along a pocket-size pot amongst footling H2O to boil. As the H2O is boiling I chop the vegetable that volition become inwards first, the 1 that requires the most cooking time; inwards my illustration the potatoes. I move along chopping as well as adding vegetables similar this starting amongst the vegetable requiring the most cooking fourth dimension to the 1 that requires the least, inwards my illustration the zucchini. By the fourth dimension I add together the zucchini in,the vegetables are virtually done. This makes cooking to a greater extent than efficient.
