Steps
- 1
Heat oil and add mustard seeds, cumin seeds and kalonji. Allow them to splutter.

- 3
Add all the chopped vegetables and mix well. Add salt, turmeric (optional), black pepper powder and asafoetida.
- 4
Add water, cover and cook until the vegetables are almost tender.
- 5
Pour in milk and gently simmer until the vegetables are fully cooked and the curry reaches your preferred consistency.
- 6
Add garam masala, green chillies, coriander leaves and pounded green cardamom.
- 7
Simmer for a couple of minutes and switch off the heat.

Tips
Cut the vegetables into similar-sized pieces so they cook evenly.
Add milk after the vegetables are nearly cooked to prevent prolonged boiling of the milk.
Cook on low to medium heat after adding milk and stir gently to prevent it from sticking to the bottom.
Add the pounded cardamom and fresh coriander towards the end so their aroma remains fresh.
