Bhuna Vegetables / Vegetables in Creamy Smoky sauce

If you are a hard cor non vegetarian then you know your Bhuna meat dish. Bhuna means you have to cook meat in more ghee or oil and spices and very less water. You add ghee /oil to cook the dish ,  not water so end result is only masala coated to meat and ghee is separated from masala. Dip your naan in that luscious gravy and enjoy it. I try to do that with vegetables and end result was not that good, so when I find this recipe , wanted to give it a try and it was awesome, There are not so much spices going on but the taste is very delicious. By now you know that I tried lot of my blogger friends recipes, one reason is I am tired of my cooking , want to eat something new, so I try your recipes and whenever I get chance I share it with you all too. This dish is perfect for Vegetables only , for meat dish go with the traditional one, don't use this one. Posting some typical dinner dish after very long time , so very excited to read your views too.

I got this recipe from Priya's Food Safari. Thank you Priya for awesome dish.

  1. I actually make something like this using almond "cream", but I didn't know it was a bhuna! Your version sounds lovely- wonder what it would be like with seitan or soya chunks as well?
