    Pumpkin Salad



    Many times my MIL made "Bhopla che Baharit" which is red pumpkin mashed salad. There are no fixed proportions that make this simple yet tasty salad.  You can boil the peeled pumpkin in the cooker with your rice and daal.

     
    Today I added grated carrots since I like the colour of these carrots known locally as Delhi gajar.
     
    Ingredients:
    1 Cup boiled pumpkin
    ½ cup curds
    A little cream (optional)
    Oil

     Mustard

    Jeera/cumin seeds/jeerigi  seeds
     Hing/asafoetida
    1 green chilli (adjust as per taste)
    Curry leaves
    Coriander
    Method:
    1.       Mash the boiled pumpkin.
    2.       Beat the curds and cream mix, add salt with the pumpkin.
    3.       Heat oil and crackle mustard, Jeera/cumin seeds/jeerigi  seeds, hing/asafoetida, curry leaves and green chillies.

    4.       Serve chilled.

      Bhopla che Bharit is such a simple dish and looks flavourful. Yogurt must have added the tangy flavours. I have never tasted this and shall give it a try soon.
