Mooli Ki Bhaji or Bhurji (Radish Leaves Vegetable)

This is a healthy punjabi dish & is very easy to make. It tastes excellent with hot chapaties or parathas & is one of the favorites in my family :)

Ingredients

2 bunches Radish leaves, Chopped fine

1 Radish, Peeled & chopped fine

1 tsp Ghee / Oil

½ tsp Ajwain Seeds

1 tbsp coriander powder

1/2 tsp turmeric powder

1 Green Chili slit (optional)

Salt to taste (use less here)

Method

Heat Oil in a wok & add ajwain seeds & green chili.

Add Radish & Radish leaves. Sauté for a minute.

Add Salt & cover the vessel and cook for about 2 to 4 minutes.

Once the vegetable is soft in its own moisture, add coriander powder & turmeric powder. Sauté till its little dry.

Serve hot with chapaties & Parathas.

Tips

* This vegetable becomes less (almost half of what you have cut), after cooking so always take care of amount of salt.

* Remember the radish leaves should be tender & green.

* I never add any water; vegetables are cooked well in their own moisture.

* Don't cover the vessel for more than 2 to 4 minutes or the beautiful green color will be lost.
