Basic Coriander Green Gravy
by Tarla Dalal
The Basic Coriander Green Gravy is a peppy green gravy with a tangy and herby taste, which goes well with potatoes and a lot of other veggies. It has a luscious texture and a vibrant taste, thanks to flavour enhancers like onion, garlic, green chillies and ginger. You can make this gravy and use it immediately, or you can make it in the morning and store it in the fridge.
As soon as you are back from work in the evening, just toss in some cooked veggies and salt, to make a tongue-tickling subzi. However, remember that it cannot be preserved even in the fridge for more than a day as it has curds and milk.
