Kathal Masaledar Sabzi

North Indian style Kathal ki sabji and the recipe comes from my mom. This is not a dry sabji. There is some gravy in the sabji but not too much.Also, there is a slight sourness in the sabji due to the addition of curd. This slight sourness tastes good and accompanies the kathal’s taste and texture very well. The kathal sabji tastes good with some chapatis Or methi puri. 

Simple and easy to make is this kathal ki sabzi made in a pressure cooker. Kathal is a seasonal fruit and is available during the initial months of the summer season in India - March and through the summer months ( kathal sabji is mandatory in holi in my home 🏠) Kathal having a meaty texture. 👩‍🍳❤
