 Shalgam Sabzi- Turnip and peas cooked in a tangy tomato sauce

Shalgam Sabzi- Turnip/shalgam /Gungloo is a healthy,easily available and a very reasonably priced vegetable.Though it is a winter crop but now easily available through out the year.

Turnip is mainly consumed in the state of Punjab.Turnip has numerous health benefits as it is loaded with so many nutrients ,it strengthen the immune system,helps to loose weight,good source of B-complex, minerals, maintains blood pressure, decrease the risk of  heart disease and diabetes

When you shop for shalgam then try to choose small young shalgam as they taste best,the big mature turnip taste slightly woody and bitter and some times turn dry and fibrous from the center so choose heavy but small turnips for best result.

As shalgam is from the raddish family so it has a peculiar taste . You need to add some sugar and lemon juice to balance the taste.you can either make this shalgam sabzi dry or make little soft and watery like I made

Notes

NOTE-
  1. Try to choose small and heavy turnip as small turnip taste best,mature and big turnip have a peculiar taste.
  2. I prefer to mash the curry so it absorb all the flavours but you can make it without mashing if you prefer.
  3. I have make it watery but you can also make it dry.
  4. Can use mango powder instead of lemon juice.
  5. Addition of green peas is optional.
