Karonda Mirch Ki Sabzi
In a lazy Sunday, I was not in a mood to prepare lunch, but my husband wanted to have something special. Unwillingly, I went to check my fridge what options are available. Â Â I found Karonda (Carissa) lying there, which I bought for preparing pickle. I decided to do some experiment and prepared a curry with it.
Karonda Mirch Ki Sabzi is a tangy vegetable which is usually used in pickles. Here I have tried to prepare curry with it. For this recipe Karonda and green chilies are cooked with mustard. Mustard gives a unique flavor to this hot and tangy curry. A single spoon of this hot and tangy curry will change taste of your grey meal.
