Mangodi Papad Ki Sabzi

Papad mangodi is a traditional Rajasthani dish, commonly prepared during summers due to the scarcity of green vegetables. It is a quick dish made with basic ingredients.

Ingredients

  • 2 units Papad
  • 0.5 cup Mangodi (Available readymade at grocery stores)
  • 0.5 cup Fenugreek leaves, finely chopped
  • 0.25 teaspoon Cumin seeds

  • 1 teaspoon Chilli powder
  • 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
  • 1 pinch Asophoetida
  • 3 teaspoons Vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. 1Break the mangodi into small pieces.
  2. 2Heat the vegetable oil in a pressure cooker. Once hot, add mustard seeds and cumin seeds, allowing them to splutter.
