Instructions

Wash and soak the dry saangri for 2 hours.
Soak dried red chillies too. ( If you want to add)
Boil water and add soaked saangri to it and take a boil. Cover it and Keep aside for 15-20 minutes so that they get cooked properly and become tender.
Drain the water and remove the boiled saangri in a big mixing bowl or paraat.
Add all masalas i.e salt, haldi, dhania powder, red chilli powder, mustard powder, sugar powder, amchoor and garam masala to it and mix well. Alternatively you can add the masala directly to the saangri after giving the tadka.
Meanwhile take a wok/kadhai and heat oil (little more quantity than normal). When hot, give tadka of cumin seeds, mustard seeds, kalaunji and asafoetida. Also can add bay leaves to the tadka.
Add soaked red chilies and stir fry.
Add the masala mixed saangri to the hot oil and stir fry. Sprinkle little water and cook.
Mix properly so that all masala are mixed well and cooked properly with saangri. When the masala gets cooked and any excess water is evaporated, lower the flame.
Cover the lid and cook for 2-4/mins. When the oil separates, it indicates that the saangri is ready.
Switch off the flame. Delicious Saangri ki Sabzi is ready to be served with hot chapatis.
Note: Saangri ki sabzi has more shelf life and can be stored w/o refrigeration for a week. The key lies in usage of oil, masalas (little more than normal) and cooking (Water content evaporated fully).
Enjoy your delicious Saangri ki Sabzi.

I am a housewife passionate towards cooking variety vegeterian food. Since I love change in the food regularly, I keep experimenting and innovating the daily food with simple twists so that they look different and maintain the taste. Variation in look, taste and preperation is my mantra in day to day cooking.
