Ingredients
Spices and Flavorings
- 1 tsp Carom Seeds ajwain
- 1 tsp Turmeric Powder haldi
- 1 tsp Chili Powder red
- 1 tsp Coriander Powder dhania
- 1/4 tsp Asafoetida hing
- 1 1/2 tsp Salt or to taste
Other
- 1 tbsp Tomato Purée
- 2 tbsp Mustard Oil
Instructions
- Wash and chop the dill. Set aside.
- Wash the arbi thoroughly. Boil until tender. Peel and discard the skins.
- Heat the mustard oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil shimmers and is hot, add the carom seeds and asafoetida. Sauté briefly until fragrant. This releases their aromatic oils.
- Add the turmeric powder, coriander powder, and red chili powder to the pan. Stir-fry for a few seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn the spices.
- Add the tomato purée and stir well to combine. Cook for a minute or two until the purée slightly darkens.
- Add the chopped dill to the pan. Cover and cook for about a minute to wilt the dill slightly.
- Add the boiled arbi and salt to the pan. Stir gently to coat the arbi with the spice mixture. Cover and cook for another minute to allow the flavors to meld.
- Uncover and stir-fry for a final minute to ensure everything is heated through. Remove from heat.
- Garnish with fresh dill sprigs and serve hot. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Good To Know
- This recipe can be served as a snack or main course.
- For extra crunch, lightly dust the boiled arbi slices with a touch of rice flour before pan-frying.
- If you prefer a tangier profile, squeeze fresh lime or sprinkle a bit of amchur (dry mango powder) just before serving.
- To avoid sliminess, ensure the arbi is completely dry after boiling and cooling; additionally, sauté over medium-high heat without overcrowding the pan.
- For a gluten-free variation, ensure your spices and tomato puree are free from additives, and consider serving Dill Ki Arbi as a filling inside gluten-free wraps or with millet rotis.
Expert Tips
- For a richer flavor, try adding a dollop of ghee or a splash of cream at the end of cooking.
- Customize the spice level by adjusting the amount of green chilies or adding a pinch of red chili powder.
- Freshly chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lemon juice can brighten the flavors just before serving.
Storage Instructions
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave.
