When you want tasty, easy, ready in minutes and a recipe without Onions,ginger or garlic, then this is the go to recipe.

Recipe was shared by my friend Nishita Sadarangani. She had made this some time back when we went to her house for Holi. With fresh hot puris coming out of the pan and steaming bowls of Aloo Sabzi, we just couldn’t get enough of it.

I love the simplicity of this dish, with such few ingredients it packs in a lot of flavor! The tomatoes give such a nice color to the dish. Its the perfect dish for festivals! I made this recently for my Diwali party and complemented it with Gobi Matar, Bhindi do pyaza and fat free Dahi vadas.

I also made Dabeli Twists,Quinoa Oatmeal Dhokla and Couscous Salad for appetizers

Make this for your family, for your next festivity or party, everyone is going to love it!
