Notes

  1. 1 CUP = 250 ML. (US cups are typically 240 ml. You can use US cups with no significant change to the dish). 1 TEASPOON = 5ML; 1 TABLESPOON=15 ML.
  2. Grams to cups measurements – we strive to provide these conversions as accurately as possible. There might be some slight variations depending on the brand, weighing scale, etc.
  3. Serving size – This serves 4 people. Adjust the serving size to fit your dietary needs.
  4. Useful Tips
    Make all the vegetables uniform (almost) in size. See how you can you easily cut cauliflower florets.
    I use sweet onion for this recipe, mainly for the aesthetic aspect. I think they blend well with the cauliflower & potatoes well.
    Place the vegetables in a single layer in the baking tray. If your baking tray is not large enough to hold the entire quantity, work in batches.
    Since we are using the oven, this prevents soggy vegetables and results in perfectly cooked, fork tender, flavorful sabji.
    Do not forget to squeeze dome lime/lemon juice once the sabji is ready. This enhanced the flavor quite a lot.
  5. Meal Prep Tip: You can cut and dice the vegetables ahead of time.
