tomato 2 medium sized

capsicum 2 medium sized

coriander

powder 1 teaspoon

turmeric

powder 1/2 teaspoon

chilly

powder 3/4 teaspoon

salt as required

dried

methi leaves 1 teaspoon

To be dry roasted & Powdered:

Sesame seeds (white) 2 teaspoons

Ground nut 35 grams

Process....

• Heat the oil in the pan (i used olive oil) and add the cut onions.saute it till it becomes transparent
• mean time take the tomato full in a bowl and keep in oven for 3 minutes, or put the whole tomatoes in hot water so that the outer layer can be peeled off. now peel off the skin and keep it away. (do not smash or cut)
• once the onions are done add the cut capsicums. (i used red ones, diff colors can be more good)
• saute them for 5 min and then add the whole tomatoes.
• now add one cup of water and salt. close it with a lid and allow it to boil for 12 minutes.
• when u open the lid after 12 minutes the tomatoes would have got mixed with the curry.
• now add the turmeric,coriander and the chilly powders. after 2 min add the sesame and groundnut powder also.
• now without closing the lid allow it to boil for 5 min and off the heat. now add methi leaves and serve.

the natural oil from sesame gives the dish a shine and hence 2 spoons of oil will be perfectly enough. enjoy the sabji with chapathi or rice... :)
