  • 1 teaspoon Black Peppercorns
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin Seeds
  • A Pinch Asafoetida
  • 1/4 teaspoon Turmeric Powder

Instructions

  • We use ripe yellow pumpkin as it is more suited for making this sabzi. Remove the hard outer skin.
  • Chop the pumpkin into cubes once we remove the outer skin.
  • Crush the green and black cardamoms, keep aside.
  • Heat oil in a pressure cooker, add asafoetida along with other whole spices. Stir for few minutes, then add the pumpkin pieces salt and turmeric powder. Mix everything well.
  • Add half a cup of water, cover with lid, and pressure cook for 2 whistles. Else if cooking over the pan, cover and cook for 10 minutes until soft and mushy.
