โSambhariyu Shaak” is a traditional Gujarati vegetable dish packed with flavors and high nutritional value. It typically incorporates a variety of seasonal vegetables, aromatic spices, and sometimes stuffed vegetables. What makes it truly special is the harmonious combination of sweet, spicy, and tangy flavors.
In this recipe, I prepared Sambhariyu Shaak in a pressure cooker, making it an extremely straightforward and time-efficient process. It serves as an ideal accompaniment to various types of pooris, but it can also be savored alongside piping hot jalebi. I encourage you to give it a try; you won’t be disappointed!
- Firstly, the peanut-coconut-based masala is the heart of the sambhariyu shaak. The masala is a combination of sweet, spicy, and tangy flavors.
- Use your choice of veggies; you can increase or decrease the amount of vegetables as per your liking.
- I made sambhariyu shaak in a pressure cooker, which helps to expedite the cooking process. You can also make it in a kadai.
- Lastly, sambhariyu shaak tastes great when prepared with a slight spiciness.
