Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prep the veggies. Cut the veggies in medium size pieces and chunks. (See the images below)
- 2
The potato, pumpkin and daikon are in chunks, the eggplant is in big long, medium thick slices, the broccoli is cut in florets. The cabbage is cut in thick pieces (as shown).
- 3
In a wide cooking pan with a lid, heat the oil. When the oil is hot (it will appear shiny), add the Paanch Phoron 5 spice blend. Let it crackle for 5 seconds. Add the veggies. Stir in medium heat for a 2-3 minutes.
- 4
Add the turmeric and chilli powders.
- 5
Stir and keep cooking the veggies for 2 minutes more in medium heat. Now add the minced ginger.
- 6
Stir fry the veggies making sure the ginger is well incorporated for 2 minutes more. Add the cabbage next.
- 7
Raise the heat to medium high and cook stirring often. The vegetables will start browning slightly and depending on the pan the cabbage might begin to sear a bit. Lower the heat and cover and cook for 5-10 minutes, checking often. The veggies should be cooked through but not mushy. Add the salt and sugar (or sugar substitute) and stir couple of times. Turn off heat. Your dish is ready!
- 8
Serve with rice and some Indian pickle or a papadom. I like to add some kick with a fresh red or green chilli pepper. Enjoy!

Vegetarian Curry Vegetarian Curry
I adapted a curry recipe from "vege dining", a website I love.It is free of animal derived ingredients and doesn't use a lot of oil, so it's ideal to feed to small children as well.Add richness using sesame paste. You could probably use peanut butter instead. Adjust the amount of spices to taste. Reduce the curry powder for small children. Try to use preservative and MSG-free ketchup and sauce as much as possible. If you are allergic to wheat, dilute rice flour, kudzu starch, or katakuriko with water and add at the end to thicken the sauce. Recipe by Naokki- cookpad.japan -
Savory Veggie-Filled Curry Savory Veggie-Filled Curry
I saw this recipe somewhere in a book, and changed it slightly when I put this recipe together. I've gotten many requests to make this again, especially from my boyfriend who's in love with it. Maybe you'll change your mind about other kinds of curry, too. Use leftovers to make curry bread.To balance out the flavor, I used vegetable juice that doesn't contain tomatoes. Simmer without covering the pan - this is to evaporate the acidic flavor. Adding tomatoes will make it taste like hayashi rice (hashed beef stew). If you'd like, give it a try. For 4 servings.

Vegan Vegetable Curry Vegan Vegetable Curry
When I went to India I had such an amazing cheese curry that I literally cried tears of joy. When I came home I wanted to try to re-create it myself so went to the supermarket to buy ingredients when I came across a really nice avocado. So I decided to use that instead of the cheese on a spur-of-the-moment decision.You will still get a delicious curry whether you let it simmer for a long time or not. Ginger has a very strong presence in most dishes so if you don't like it very much grate it and get the juice or cut it up in a food processor. For 2 servings. Recipe by Tokurai cookpad.japan -

Healthy Chicken & Veggie Curry Healthy Chicken & Veggie Curry
I like chicken curry and I've been making this for a long time. I think it's healthy as you don't use much store-bought curry roux. If you don't sauté the onions until lightly browned, you can use 1 large onion instead.Adjust the amount of curry powder to taste. There are some curry powder blends that you don't have to roast. The curry powder turns bitter if you roast it too much, so be careful. Adding the potato makes curry to thicken, so you can make this curry without store-bought curry roux. But the store-bought curry roux adds richness to the curry and it tastes better. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221 cookpad.japan -

Indian-Style Eggplant Curry (Vegetarian) Indian-Style Eggplant Curry (Vegetarian)
I always order eggplant curry, since I love it. But the authentic version has tons of oil. To reduce cooking time as well as the amount of oil, I generally microwave eggplants before using them in dishes like this.For this recipe, I used a large, round eggplant. Use 2 if using the narrow type. Adjust the spices to taste. Recipe by KT121 cookpad.japan
