Restaurant-style Vegetable salna is delicious with parotta and also goes well with dosa, idli, puri and chapati. It is tastier and healthier than plain salna that is made without vegetables. We can add our favourite vegetables, like carrots, potatoes, peas, cauliflower etc.,  Homemade special masala makes the salna tasty and flavourful. 

Notes

  • It is recommended to use sesame oil or peanut oil for salna and you can add any other cooking oil if it is not accessible.
  • Instead of adding ginger garlic paste, add a little ginger and peeled garlic while grinding the masala paste for a fresh flavour.
  • Since dried peas are used in this recipe, I soaked them for 8 hours, If you use green peas, there is no need to soak them.
  • Curry masala powder is optional.
  • You can replace the curry masala powder with ¼ tsp of garam masala powder.
  • When grinding coconut paste, you can add 3 tsp of peanuts instead of cashew nuts.
  • You can adjust the spiciness to your taste.
  • Adjust the water according to your desired consistency.
