Method:
Firstlty prepare vegetables by washing and cutting into wedges. Grate or chop onions fine. In a waterless pot saute in oil together with ingredients marked with asterisk.
Before onions change colour, add salted, dhunia chutney and those vegetables that take longer to cook. Such as mealie cobs, potatoes, etc. toss and turn veggies to coat them well with oil. Add coconut cream, again toss and turn vegetables, then close lid and simmer very slowly – opening lid only to add other types of vegetables.
Tips:
You can add 2-3 whole red chillies when the onions are being sauted.
