Ingredients for making Yellow Pumpkin Stir Fry:
Fresh Yellow pumpkin chopped in to small cubes 1 large bowl
Turmeric powder,
Red chilli powder 1 tea spoon
Chopped Onions 1 small cup
Hing 1/4 tea spoon
Corn flour 1 table spoon
Cumin seed 1 tea spoon
Garam masala Powder 1/4 tea spoon (Optional)
Mustard seeds and Urad dhal
Oil 1 1/2 table spoons
Method for making Yellow Pumpkin Stir Fry:
Heat a pan with oil. Saute it with mustard seeds, uradh dhal and cumin seeds. Add salt, chilli powder, turmeric powder and hing(or Garam masala powder) to the oil and stir it. Fry the onions for few minutes and add the chopped pumpkin pieces and mix well.
Keep the flame in medium and occasionally stir it. After the veggies are boiled, keep the flame in high and fry till the moisture evaporates fully. Sprinkle the corn flour and mix well. Garnish with curry leaves and serve.
Note: While cooking the yellow pumpkin don't close the pan with the lid. It gives out more water if cooked closed and this will make the curry more watery.
