Winter season is seen with the vegetable vendors "thela" (cart) loaded with a variety of greens!! I mean, just looking at the cart loaded so beautifully makes you wanna buy something or the other, even if your refigerator is loaded. My friends always wonder n are amazed at my love for the subzi market (veggie market). The shine in my eyes is something that they cant connect with, n just walking past or driving past one makes me wanna stop n maybe just walk around the whole place, n of course pick up the freshest of produce that mother Earth has given us in full!!! I dont know how many of you agree with me, or have such feelings - but I surely do, n honestly I love that feeling!!
Spring onions are one such greens that the market is so very flooded with these days, n here is my all time fav recipe for this simple but excellent veggie.
Ing -
1/2 kg - spring onions
4 potatoes
1/4 tspn - jeera
1/4 tspn - turmeric powder
3 green chillies
a pinch of hing
1/2 tspn - amchur powder / dried mango powder (pls use this only if you like your dish to be chatpata)
1/2 tspn - garam masala
salt as per taste
Method -
Chop off the roots of the spring onions & chop finely the leaves n the onions.
Scrape n dice the potatoes into small cubes
Wash both of them together
In a kadai / pan, heat some oil
Add the jeera n hing
When they are turning brown, add the turmeric & green chillies.
Quickly add the washed veggies before the masala burns
Add salt.
Close lid & let cook on low flame
Keep stirring in between till both the potatoes n the leaves are cooked.
Sprinkle amchur powder & garam masala & check salt.
Serve with chappatis.
This is a very simple recipe but is very much liked by me and my hubby. So I am hoping that you will like it too.

I love the veggie markets in winter too - in fact, I have dedicated a whole blog to the topic. Particularly in Delhi, the bounty of nature is especially rich, no? This sounds like an interesting veggie - I have always used spring onions either raw in salads or in oriental cooking, never with aloo. Will try. Love the pictures on your blog.
sounds interesting...have to try it out...
hey, simple is always good, great sabji.. :)
This is awesome, i havent eaten iyaz kali in years and was looking desperately for a recipe, will cook it soon, any substitute for hing/ amchur?
Fallen Angel - thanks for dropping by. You can omit both the things. You can add a dash of lemon if you want a tangy taste i/o of the amchur.
