🇮🇳 Indian

Flat beans and potato with ajwain's thyme-like warmth, a north Indian winter regular. The kind of homely bhaji that disappears fastest off the thali. Serve hot with rotis, dal and a wedge of lemon.

Soften the onions in oil over a medium flame with a little salt until translucent and sweet.
3
Add ginger garlic paste, cook out the raw smell, then bloom the turmeric, chili and coriander in the oil.

Chef's tip

Roasted peanut powder stirred in at the end adds body without cream.
