Sev Tameta nu Shaak

🇮🇳 Indian

Gujarati tomato curry crowned with crunchy sev, sweet, sour and spicy in one bite. A one-pan weeknight sabzi that asks for little and gives a lot. Serve hot with rotis, dal and a wedge of lemon.

Prep 20 min Cook 21 min Serves 4 Medium

Ingredients

  • Ginger Garlic Paste1 tbsp
  • Garam Masala1/2 tsp
  • Saltto taste
  • Onion1, finely chopped
  • Tomato3, chopped
  • Green Chili1-2, slit
  • Cumin Seeds1 tsp
  • Coriander Powder1 tsp
  • Turmeric Powder1/2 tsp
  • Vegetable Oil2 tbsp
  • Lemon1
  • Red Chili Powder1 tsp
  • Potato Sticks2 tbsp
  • Jaggery3/4 cup, grated

Optional extras

  • Fresh Cilantro2 tbsp, chopped

Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash and cut the tomato into even, bite-size pieces so everything cooks at the same pace.

  2. 2

    Soften the onions in oil over a medium flame with a little salt until translucent and sweet.

  3. 3

    Add ginger garlic paste, cook out the raw smell, then bloom the turmeric, chili and coriander in the oil.

  4. 4

    Turn the tomato through the masala with the potato sticks, clamp on a lid and let the steam work — check after 10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Uncover, raise the heat for two minutes to dry off any liquid, then shower with cilantro and a squeeze of lemon.

Chef's tip

Don't crowd the pan; steam is the enemy of the browning that builds flavour.
