We love Gujarati Undhiyu and make it at least once every winter, but we must admit that it is a labour of love (takes 2-3 hours) to prepare. So, we thought why not use the flavourful base of Undhiyu and make a dish with tofu and green peas, added broad beans for added fiber and vitamins and the entire dish comes together in about 40 min.
If you enjoy experimenting in cooking, then you would like this dish. 😄
