Restaurant style mixed veg curry recipe | Side dish for chapati | roti – Creamy mixed veg curry without cream or cashew nuts. Recipe for Mixed veg curry with full video and step by step pictures.
As we make different varieties of chutney recipes in South India for Idli | dosa, they make different varieties of gravies for chapati too. We have a wide collection of side dishes for roti recipes in Jeyashris kitchen. This restaurant-style mixed veg masala is a very rich and creamy gravy, without using cream or cashew nuts.
The creaminess of the gravy comes from besan and curd. We have used this similar type of gravy in Dum aloo recipe too. I have tried this one before using mixed veggies and it turned out very well. This one is a fantastic gravy that pairs well with naan, roti, and jeera rice too.
I have posted one mixed veg curry using frozen vegetables, in Jeyashris kitchen many years back. Apart from that, we have some restaurant-style and dhaba style curries in Jeyashris kitchen as well. Though we love the South Indian style kurma, kids love North Indian style gravies for chapati.
