Instructions
Whisk yogurt in a large bowl using a wire whisk until smooth and creamy.
Add chickpea flour and whisk well to make a lump-free mixture.
Add water and mix well. Set this mixture aside.
Heat oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
When the oil is hot, add fenugreek seeds, mustard seeds, cumin seeds, asafetida, dry red chilies, and curry leaves. Let them crackle for 6-8 seconds.
Add onions and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
Add peas, lady's fingers, cauliflower florets, and potatoes (¼-inch cubes), and mix well.
Now add salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and coriander powder and mix well.
Cover the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring a few times.
Remove the lid.
Add the yogurt mixture to the pan and bring it to a boil, stirring continuously.
Reduce the heat to low.
Cover the pan and cook the kadhi for 45-50 minutes, until it has thickened and the vegetables are cooked properly.
Add more water if the kadhi is too thick. Check for salt and add more if required.
Temper The Kadhi (Optional)
Heat oil in a pan over medium heat.
When the oil is hot, add mustard seeds and curry leaves and let them crackle for 4-5 seconds.
Switch off the heat.
Add red chili powder to the pan and immediately pour the tempering over the kadhi.
Mix well. Serve hot.
Tip
- Save some tempering for garnishing.
