Pakistani Style Turai Ka Salan (Courgettes Curry)

Submitted by The UnModern Woman

"Like many basic vegetable curries this recipe has it all. Only difference is I add lemon & garam masala powder at the end to give it a more aromatic flavor. You can also add meat in it after frying the onions & cook the meat along with tomatoes & spices till it gets done. Then add courgettes & follow the rest of the recipe."

Easy to make, delicate flavors, nice texture and tastes great eaten straight out the refrigerator even after a few days storage.

I made this dish twice, and it turned out great each time. I made it according to the recipe, and it was just enough for my husband and me. The next time I doubled the recipe so we could have leftovers. This is great with paratha or rice. I will definitely make this often.

My husband and I really enjoyed this dish! It was just the right amount of spice and quite savory. We added an extra serrano pepper as we like curries to have a little kick. I'll definitely be adding this to our regular rotation!
