Papad ki Sabzi

🇮🇳 Indian

Roasted papad broken into quick yogurt curry, the Rajasthani five-minute sabzi. A proper gravy curry — the kind that demands something bread-shaped for mopping. Best with buttered rotis and a cold kachumber salad.

  3. 3

    Cook the tomato down into the spices, wetting with water a spoon at a time, to a thick red masala.

Chef's tip

If the masala sticks, add water a tablespoon at a time rather than drowning the dish.
