Mix vegetable is a traditional Indian recipe. It is easy to cook and taste delicious. Each vegetable adds its own flavor to the mix and nice aroma fills in the kitchen making my mouth water. Any vegetable can be added or subtracted based on availability in the kitchen. Mostly I make this one without onions to have a unique taste. I, especially like the sweet taste of corn, whenever it comes in a spicy bite. We usually accompany it with chapatis and curd. I don’t have a picture for it right now, but would soon update it, next time I prepare it.
