Mixed Vegetables In Rich Cashew And Coconut Gravy

Am enjoying my stay at my sister's place and her cooking. It's good to a take break from day to day chores, though after a day or two it's becomes difficult to stay away from cooking. 



 Today's  dinner is mixed vegetable subzi served with rotis. She made yummy hot phulkas and I made mixed vegetables in creamy coconut and cashew gravy. 

 

This is my own recipe and I was very happy when everyone at home appreciated the dish  and enjoyed eating with hot rotis:)
