Ingredients

  • 1 cup dalia
  • 1 medium sized onion
  • 1 inch ginger
  • 1 green chilies
  • 1 medium sized tomato
  • ½ cup chopped carrots
  • ½ cup chopped potatoes
  • ½ cup green peas
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • salt as required

Instructions

  • In a 3-liter pressure cooker, warm the butter or oil.
  • Maintain a medium-low flame. First, splutter one teaspoon of cumin in the heated oil.
  • One chopped onion should be added and sauteed on a medium-low to medium temperature until transparent.
  • Add 1 to 2 finely chopped green chilies and 1 inch of finely sliced ginger now. Sauté for a few seconds or until the ginger's scent disappears over a low flame.
  • For 1 minute, add 1 tomato that has been coarsely sliced.
  • Add the remaining 1/2 cup each of chopped potatoes, carrots, and green peas (fresh or frozen). Cook for two minutes over a low to medium flame. Stir the mixture intermittently.
  • Add the washed dalia to the vegetables. On a low burner, stir for three to four minutes.
  • As needed, add 4 cups of water and salt. Stir and pressure cook for 10 to 12 whistles over medium heat, or until the dalia is thoroughly cooked. Timing will change based on the dalia's quality.
  • If the daliya isn't fully cooked, add extra water and pressure cook for a few more whistles or cook without the lid until they're softened and have the consistency of porridge.
  • Serve the vegetable daliya hot or warm and garnish with coriander leaves.
