Balti Vegetable Curry

 

cooking spray

4 to 5 cups of vegetables(spinach, mushrooms, cauliflower, potatoes

and peas, or whatever your heart desires)

2 cups Balti Sauce (recipe follows)

salt to taste

chopped fresh cilantro and garam masala for garnish

 

Heat spray in pan, add mixed vegetables and stir fry for about five

minutes. Add Balti Sauce and stir-fry until hot and bubbling. Lower

heat, cover, and simmer ten to fifteen minutes until vegetables are

cooked. If sauce looks dry, add 1/4 cup of vegetable stock or water.

Add salt to taste. Garnish with cilantro and garam masala.

 

Serve it over some bismati rice. Serrano peppers are pretty hot, so

use less if you prefer.
