Sengri Aloo Ki sabzi- A delicious stir fry of Radish Pod and potato  -a winter specialty

Sengri | Moongre or mongre is the pod of Radish and is available in winter season only.This Sengri ki phali is popular in North India specially in Uttar Pradesh. These pods are very reasonably priced during the season.

The pods grow in different sizes ,you can find them quite long or small in size and often sold in bunches.  The tails of these sengri phali’s are quite dry or fibrous so you have to remove them while chopping the pod.

These radish pods looks quite similar to French beans but are very different taste wise .The taste of sengri is quite pungent like radish. Sengri is available in two types ,green and purple . Green mongri is usually used to make sabzi but you can eat the young tender green mongri raw or add it in your salad. The purple one is the most preferred one to eat raw.

Finely chopped purple pods are added in the yogurt to make delicious raita or added in salads. You can also make delicious chutney with these pungent sengri ki phali, green chili, lemon juice and few basic spices.

Sengri aloo ki sabzi is a simple stir fry made with few basic spices. You can add both in similar quantity or add more of sengri and just few pieces of potatoes .Addition of tomato is optional but it gives a nice color to the sabzi. This sengri aloo is a dry stir fry and goes well with daal-rice combo,roti, parartha or poori’s.

Do try these different types of Beans ki sabzi-
