Cashew Nuts (kaju): In general, walnuts, cashew nuts, peanuts, almonds, pistachios and pine nuts are a healthy snack to carry keep with you as they are rich in monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats and good for heart and diabetics.

Pro tips of tendli cashew nut sabzi. 1. Add 1 1/2 cups sliced tendli (ivy gourd). Tendli has a mild, slightly sweet flavor that pairs well with the richness of the cashew nuts. The vegetable itself has a slightly crunchy texture. Tendli cooks quickly and absorbs flavors well, making it ideal for a stir-fry style sabzi like this one. 2. Add the soaked cashew nuts. Cashew nuts themselves are quite hard and crunchy. Soaking them in water softens them slightly, making them have a more pleasant texture in the final dish. Soaking can help release some of the cashew nuts' natural oils and flavors. This can subtly enrich the overall flavor profile of the sabzi.

    making tendli cashew nut sabzi
  1. Heat 1 tbsp coconut oil or oil in a kadhai.  Use coconut oil instead of processed seed oils like soyabean oil, canola, sunflower oil, corn oil and other omega-6 rich oils should be used in very low amounts.  Coconut oil is a medium chain triglycerides (MCT’s).
  2. Add 1/2 tsp mustard seeds ( rai / sarson).
  3. Let the seeds crackle. 
  4. Add whole dry kashmiri red chillies , broken into small pieces. Kashmiri red chillies are known for their vibrant red color rather than intense heat. They add a touch of warmth and background spice to the sabzi without overpowering the other flavors.
  5. Cook on medium heat for 5 to 10 seconds.
  6. Add 1 1/2 cups sliced tendli (ivy gourd). Tendli has a mild, slightly sweet flavor that pairs well with the richness of the cashew nuts. The vegetable itself has a slightly crunchy texture. Tendli cooks quickly and absorbs flavors well, making it ideal for a stir-fry style sabzi like this one.
  7. Add salt to taste. We added 1/2 tsp salt.
  8. Mix well.
  9. Cook on a medium flame for 8 to 10 minutes or till the tendli softens, while stirring occasionally.
  10. Add the soaked cashewnuts. Cashew nuts themselves are quite hard and crunchy. Soaking them in water softens them slightly, making them have a more pleasant texture in the final dish. Soaking can help release some of the cashew nuts' natural oils and flavors. This can subtly enrich the overall flavor profile of the sabzi.  
  11. Add a pinch of sugar. Tendli can sometimes have a slightly bitter taste, especially if not cooked perfectly. A pinch of sugar can help to balance this bitterness and create a more harmonious overall flavor profile in the sabzi.
  12. Mix well.
  13. Cook on a medium flame for 1 to 2 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
  14. Garnish with 2 tbsp grated coconut. Grated coconut adds a touch of sweetness, creaminess, and a subtle nuttiness to the sabzi. This contrasts nicely with the slightly bitter or earthy flavor of tendli and the richness of the cashews.
  15. Serve tendli cashew nut sabzi | cashew nut tendli bhaji | Mangalore Ivy gourd kaju sabji | hot.
