Vegetarian roti
Vegetarian
This meal is quite easy. The most time consuming part is making the green sauce, but one batch will produce enough green sauce for 4 or 5 roti dishes into the future. Small investment up front leads to big payoff down the road.
Make the Green Sauce
This will make more than 1 serving. Freeze the unused green sauce for later use. We freeze the leftover green sauce in separate single serving containers.
In a food processor, blend:
- 1 onion diced
- 5 cloves of garlic
- 1 rib of celery
- 5 green onions
- 1 hot pepper
- 1 cup of cilantro
Make the roti
- Cut the potatoes into quarters or smaller
- Dice 1 onion
- Put pot on medium heat, add vegetable oil. Once hot, add onions and cook for 2 minutes
- Add potatoes and stir
- Add curry powder and turmeric and cook for 1 minute
- Add chickpeas, 1/4 cup of green sauce (see above), and 1 1/2 cups of water
- Mix well and reduce to low simmer
- Cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until potatoes are soft
- Add Amchar Masala, Roasted Geera, and salt to taste. Mix well.
Serve with Roti or rice.
