how to make vegetable sagu

 

    1. Heat 2 tsp ghee in a deep non-stick pan. Ghee adds a rich, buttery flavor to the vegetable sagu. It is, in reality, a high quality fat for the body and brain. Ghee is loaded with fats but that’s medium chain fatty acids (MCT) which aid in weight loss. Ghee is healthy for daibetics in small amounts.
    2. Add 1 tsp mustard seeds ( rai / sarson).
    3. When the seeds crackle, add 1 tsp urad dal (split black lentils).
    4. Add 1 whole dry kashmiri red chilli.
    5. Add ½ tsp asafoetida. 
    6. Add 7 to 8 curry leaves.
    7. Sauté on a medium flame for 30 seconds.
    8. Add ¼ cup finely chopped onions. Onions add a bit of crunch and texture to the sagu that helps to contrast with the other vegetables. Onions have a strong aroma that helps to enhance the overall flavor of the sagu and very good for the heart.
    9. Sauté on a medium flame for 1 minute.
    10. Add 1 cup cauliflower florets. Cauliflower has a mild, slightly sweet flavor that complements the flavors of the other vegetables in the Sagu. Cauliflower is extremely low in carbs and therefore does not raise blood glucose levels quickly. One cup Cauliflower provides you 100% off your daily recommended allowance of Vitamin C.
    11. Add ¾ cup chopped french beans. French beans have a slightly sweet and earthy flavor that pairs well with the other vegetables in the sagu. French Beans are rich in folic acid.  A deficiency of folic acid can also lead to anaemia, as like iron they are equally necessary to make red blood cells.
    12. Add ¼ cup chopped carrot. Carrots have a naturally sweet flavor that complements the savory flavors of the other vegetables in the sagu. Carrot is great for the eyes.They relieve constipation, lower blood pressure, have fibre and lower cholesterol.
    13. Add ¼ cup chopped capsicum.
    14. Add ½ cup green peas.
    15. Add salt to taste.
    16. Add 1 cup of water.
    17. Add ½ tsp turmeric powder (haldi).
    18. Mix well and cover with a lid and cook on a medium flame for 10 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
    19. Mix well.
    20. Add the prepared green masala paste.
    21. Mix gently and cook on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
    22. Serve vegetable sagu hot garnished with coriander.
