  • Spring onions (hare pyaz) - 1 full bunch
  • Tomato - 1 medium, chopped
  • Green chillies - 3-4, finely chopped
  • Garlic - small amount, crushed
  • Oil - 1 tbsp
  • Cumin seeds (jeera) - 1/2 tsp
  • Asafoetida (hing) - a pinch
  • Red chilli powder - 1 tsp
  • Coriander powder - 1 tsp
  • Salt - 1/2 tsp (to taste)
  • Turmeric powder - slightly less than 1/2 tsp

Steps

  1. Clean and wash spring onions 2-3 times. Chop them, keeping white bulb parts and green leafy parts separate
  2. Finely chop tomato, green chillies, and crush garlic
  3. Mix red chilli powder, coriander powder, salt, and turmeric with a little water to make a spice paste. Let it soak
  4. Heat oil, add cumin seeds. Once they splutter, add garlic, green chillies, and hing. Saute briefly
  5. Pour in the spice paste. Cook until oil separates and floats on top
  6. Squeeze excess water from tomatoes and add. Cook until water evaporates
  7. Squeeze water from white spring onion parts and add first
  8. Squeeze water from green leafy parts tightly and add
  9. Mix well. Do not add extra water - spring onions release their own moisture
