Sabzi Masala (All purpose Spice Mix for Indian Cookery)

Notes:

• I usually add 1 tsp of turmeric powder first and then add the remaining to adjust the color. Sabzi Masala should have a little bit of that turmeric yellow hue to it.
• A simple method to use Sabzi Masala: Chop up vegetables like potato, cauliflower, beans, carrot. You can add chickpeas, green peas, onion, and paneer. Blanch or boil the vegetables that require it. Heat oil. Saute some ginger-garlic paste and add parboiled or blanched vegetables. Add sabzi masala, a little whipped yogurt, a dash of water, and salt to taste. Cover and cook a while till tender.

Key Ingredients: Whole and Powdered Spices, Salt.
