Simple spring onion curry
Spring onions or as some might call eco-friendly onions or Scallions are a fascinating vegetable. Mainly employed for garnishing/ salads or perhaps in Chinese soups, noodles and sauces, I have not attempted for their services like a primary component within my cooking.
It's obtainable in Bombay vegetable markets almost throughout the year. They're offered in bunches, one bunch getting up to 8-10 sprigs. I've observed the smaller sized the onion bulb, the fresher the foliage is.
You are able to't store that one for too lengthy because it starts wilting inside a 2-three days.This time around a vegetable vendor were able to sell us a really huge bunch. Simply using them for garnishing might have led to rotten onions over a couple of days and therefore this recipe struck. Sometimes, one just starts of chopping a vegetable without getting an absolute plan in your mind so that as one keeps adding ingredients without effort, a brand new dish comes into the world.
In Maharashtrian cooking, there's something known as a zunka-that is essentially a cooked gram flour paste. The curry switched out something similar to a Zunka in the finish of my cooking adventure.
