Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (diced) Eggplant
- 1 cup (florets) Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Ghee or Coconut Oil
- 1 medium (finely chopped) Onion
- 2 large (pureed) Tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon Ginger Garlic Paste
- 1 teaspoon Cumin Seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red Chili Powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Garam Masala
- 0.5 teaspoon (or to taste) Salt
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh Coriander
Instructions
Heat the ghee or coconut oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Add cumin seeds and allow them to sizzle for about 30 seconds until they start to crackle.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown.
Stir in the ginger garlic paste and sauté for another minute until the raw smell disappears.
Add the pureed tomatoes and cook for 5-7 minutes, until the oil starts to separate from the mixture.
Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Stir well and cook for another 2 minutes.
Incorporate the diced eggplant and cauliflower florets into the tomato mixture, stirring to coat the vegetables with the spices.
Cover the pan and let the sabzi simmer over low heat for about 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and cooked through.
Stir occasionally and check for doneness; you may add a little water if the mixture becomes too dry.
Once the vegetables are cooked, add the garam masala and mix well.
Garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot. Enjoy your Keto Rajma Sabzi with a side of keto-friendly naan or cauliflower rice.
