    • 2 teaspoons fresh green chilli, minced
    • 1 teaspoon fresh garlic, minced
    • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
    • 1 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander 
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 
    • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
    • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

    Directions

      Step-By-Step Guide For Gujarati Undhiyu Recipe

      1.  Step 1; Take the sugar snap peas, wash them clean, and snip off the ends.

      2. Step 2; Take the other veggies, carrots, kumara, and potatoes. Wash it and cut it. There should be eight pieces of carrot, and four quartered pieces each of kumara and potato.

      3. Step 3; After the preparation is done, it is time to start with the cooking.

      4. Step 4; Take a large frypan and heat it on medium flame. 

      5. Step 5; Pour in three tablespoons of oil. You can use any oil like groundnut oil, sunflower oil, olive oil, etc. You can also add ghee instead of oil if you wish to get the taste of the authentic Gujarati Undhiyu dish.

      6. Step 6; Once the oil is hot, put in the carom or ajwain seeds.

      7. Step 7; Let it fry for around thirty seconds or until darkened. 

      8. Step 8- Now it is time to add in the spices.

      9. Step 9- Once the seeds have darkened, add in the fresh ginger, garlic and chilli and cook until the raw smell disappears.

      10. Step 10; Once the ginger, garlic and chilli are fried enough, add in the ground coriander, ground cumin, and turmeric powder. Make sure to stir well so that you do not burn the spices. If the pan is too hot, you can add a bit of water along with the spices, but this generally means there is not enough oil/fat to cook them, which stops them from burning. 

      11.  Step 11; Now add in the salt. 

      12. Step 12; Keep the paste stirring to infuse all the flavours nicely. Keep stirring until the oil separates from the paste.

      13. Step 13; Once the oil starts separating, you can add in the carrot and potato pieces and stir well. So that the paste is well coated into the veggies added.

      14. Step 14; After stirring for two-three minutes on medium heat, lower the heat and let it cook for five more minutes.

      15. Step 15; Check in between so the paste does not get stuck to the pan unless you use a non-stick fry pan.

      16. Step 16; After five minutes, add in the kumara and peas. Kumura and peas take less time to get cooked, which is why we have added them later and not along with the carrots and potatoes.

      17. Step 17; Let it all cook for another ten minutes on low heat or until all the veggies are cooked well.

      18. Step 18; To add a healthy crunch, sprinkle it with sesame seeds.

      Undhiyu is a traditional stir-fried Gujarati dish served during the winter. In simple terms, Gujarati Undhiyu is a stir-fried pea and vegetable dish. The word ‘Undhiyu’ is derived from the Gujarati word ‘undhu’, meaning upside down. 

      Traditionally, Gujarati Undhiyu was mainly prepared using locally grown vegetables like yam, snake gourd, potato, bitter gourd, bottle gourd, carrot, onion, and tomato. Along with adding natural sweetness from jaggery, clarified butter, and spices like cardamom, clove, and bay leaf. The dish was prepared in earthen pots, and the ingredients were put in a sealed earthen pot and hung upside down above a fire pit. The slow cooking of the ingredients gave the perfect umami to the dish, which is why it is one of the most sought-after Gujarati dishes.
      This article is about the Gujarati Undhiyu recipe, but with simple ingredients and in a simple way that you can prepare right away with the items available in your kitchen.
