Kadhai Vegetable | Kadai Vegetable | Mixed Vegetable Kadhai | Indian Vegetable Sabzi
Kadhai vegetable is a simple and flavourful Indian sabzi made with a mix of fresh vegetables cooked with onions, tomatoes, capsicum, and aromatic kadhai spices. The vegetables are cooked just enough to retain some of their natural texture while absorbing the flavours of the masala. Freshly roasted and ground spices add a warm, earthy taste to the dish. Cutting the vegetables into similar-sized pieces helps them cook evenly. Serve hot with roti, naan, paratha, or rice for an easy everyday meal.
