Vegetable Masala Recipes

Steps:

• Place potatoes, carrots and green beans in the cold water. Allow to soak while you prepare the rest of the vegetables; drain.
• In a microwave safe dish place the potatoes, carrots, green beans, peas, salt and turmeric. Cook for 8 minutes.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook mustard seeds and cumin; when seeds start to sputter and pop, add the onion and saute until transparent. Stir in the tomatoes, garam masala, ginger, garlic and chili powder; saute 3 minutes. Add the cooked vegetables to the mixture and saute 1 minute. Garnish with cilantro leaves.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the potato, squash and aubergine with 2 tbsp curry paste and 2 tbsp oil in a large roasting tin. Season, then roast for 30 mins.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. Fry the onions in the remaining oil in a large pan until softened and golden - add a splash of water if they start to dry out. Stir in the remaining curry paste, cook for 3 mins, then add the passata, coconut milk and 100ml water. Simmer for a few mins.
• When the vegetables are roasted, tip them into the sauce with the peppers and courgettes. Simmer for 10-15 mins until tender. Scatter with coriander and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and jalapeno peppers and cook until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in coriander, garam masala, cumin, paprika, and salt; saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour tomato sauce into the pan and simmer until thickened, about 15 minutes.
• Add coconut milk and maple syrup and heat until warm. Taste sauce, adding more coconut milk or spices needed.
• Add carrots, potato, bell pepper, and cauliflower florets to sauce; toss well to coat. Cover, and simmer until vegetables are crisp, but fork-tender, about 10 minutes. Serve hot.
