Hello everyone please welcome and join me in Easy Steps cooking today I'm going to
share with you one of the delicious subji it's a bottle gourd in typical Punjabi we
call it kuddu different varieties of kaddu but I'm going to use a round-shaped bottle
gourd without wasting any time let's get started with the ingredient I'm going to
use the two bottle gourd one onion and it's a medium-sized one-inch ginger 4 green chili
please see the description below for dry spices I'm going to use olive oil cilantro
Dhainya unsalted butter I'm going to use it 1 tablespoon and it's a strictly optional if
you haven't tried it please try it, I'm going to peel the bottle gourd and I'm going to cut
it into small chunks I have cold water ready I will strainer inside so what basically I'm
going to do after cutting it I'm going to place it and then I will take it out get a peeler
we are going to peel the skin
after peeling it off take the bottom portion off the same thing in the front I'll cut it in a half
about half-inch thick we're going to cut it on the side so once we cut it this size of pieces
is perfect and I will place it into my pot and I will finish up the rest green chili-ginger
cut into small tiny pieces of onion cut into long slices it's good to cut in long slices
because they go well with kuddu subji cilantro cut into small pieces kuddu is cut soaked into
cold water the whole reason we're doing it so that they don't get discolored and once we're
going to pull it off they are washed let's start Tadka get a pot start gas,
bring olive oil 1 tablespoon 1 TSP cumin seed, onion we're going to cook our onion for a couple
minutes cooking the onion for 1 minute I am going to bring ginger and green chili mix it
we going to cook it for another two minutes so altogether we are going to cook the onion
for like three minutes, cooking the onion for three minutes they are transparent now
we'll bring the spices 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder haldi 1/2 teaspoon garam masala 1/2
teaspoon salt to taste any other spices you want you can add but this is what I
like to use so mix it well I'll bring subji kuddu, mix it well and I will start my fan
after mixing it well keep your gas on the medium we're going to cover with a lid we'll cook it
for 5 minutes so once we put the lid on we're going to cook it for 5 minutes after 5 minutes
we're going to check it by the time kuddu is washed in cold water so it's going to release
all the water so then we're going to bring the gas high and we're going to cook with open lid
and we going to bring the butter at that time so what it will do it will cook with the butter
is going to bring the crispiness also the water will evaporate and we going to have a delicious
subji within 10 minutes, cooking kuddu for exactly 5 minutes I'm going to turn the fan on
mix it well
so now we're going to bring over gas on high and they keep stirring so don't get burned
at the bottom and we're going to cook it until the kuddu is fully tender, cooking for couple
of minutes with an open lid, I'm going to bring 1 tbsp butter and this is strictly optional if you
are health conscious wise then please skip it but we all Punjabis we love butter we are not
going to cover with the lid because then our vegetable, our kuddu sabji will get mushy and
then it won't taste that well we want the pieces to stay firm but well cook so we cook our kuddu
on a high gas for three minutes, now we're going to cook another two minutes on high gas and keep
stirring so I won't get burnt cooking exactly five minutes with open lid and now I'm going to
bring cilantro Dhania mix it well so after mixing it well our sabzi is already and I'll dish out
our subji round bottle gourd in typical Punjabi kuddu di sabji is already it's very delicious
and very easy to make you can eat with the roti chapati phulka parantha or tortilla
even you can eat with the bread this will be one of the delicious vegan recipes maybe you
heard the crunch that's the feeling eating a fresh vegetable as I shown you cook it for
five minutes with the closed lid then after that cook it with an open lid so that way the subji the
kuddu or the bottle gourd stays firm and when you eat it you enjoy rather then you cover it
and cook it for a long period of time then it gets mushy so I hope you like this dish and
please try it kuddu di sabji is already and it's very delicious please try it and I'm sure you're
