1

In a pressure cooker add water, dried peas, frozen green peas, red and green bell peppers, eggplant, cabbage, cauliflower, raw banana, and tomatoes. Add salt and oil so that the vegetables do not get overcooked. Cover and cook on high heat for a while. Once the pressure is released from the cooker, turn off the heat and wait a while before opening the pressure cooker.

2

Mash all the cooked vegetables.

3

In a separate pot, add the oil, cumin seeds, asafoetida, coriander powder, cumin powder, and red chili powder to taste. Then add the cooked and mashed vegetables and stir well. Add some garam masala and cook for a while. Cover and cook for about 2 or 3 minutes.

4

Once done, turn off the heat and squeeze the juice from a fresh lime and sprinkle freshly chopped coriander leaves.

5

Serve warm with freshly cut cucumber and lime slices along with a pav.
