Mix Sabji Masala Recipe: How to Make Restaurant-Style Mixed Vegetable Curry at Home
Ask any Indian home cook what saves them on a busy weeknight, and mix veg sabzi is usually near the top of the list. It's the one dish that lets you empty out the vegetable drawer and still put a satisfying, restaurant-style curry on the table in under 40 minutes. The secret isn't a long list of individual spices — it's a good Mix Sabji Masala blend that does the heavy lifting for you.
What Makes Mix Sabji Masala Different
A mixed masala blend is built specifically to season vegetables, not lentils or meat. It typically combines dried coriander, cumin, red chilli, black pepper and warming spices in a ratio that's balanced for vegetables' natural sweetness. Instead of measuring out five or six separate tins every time you cook sabzi, one spoon of ODM Mix Sabji Masala gives you a consistent, well-rounded flavour — handpicked and ground with no artificial colours or fillers.
Ingredients You'll Need
- 2 cups mixed vegetables, chopped (potato, cauliflower, carrot, beans, peas)
- 2 tbsp oil or ghee
- 1 tsp ODM Jeera Whole (cumin seeds)
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp ginger-garlic paste
- 2 tomatoes, pureed
- 1/2 tsp ODM Haldi Powder
- 1 tsp ODM Dhaniya Powder
- 2 tsp ODM Mix Sabji Masala
- Salt to taste, fresh coriander leaves for garnish
Step-by-Step Mixed Vegetable Curry Recipe
Heat oil in a kadhai and add the cumin seeds. Once they crackle, add the chopped onion and cook until golden brown. Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and cook for a minute until the raw smell disappears, then add the tomato puree along with haldi and dhaniya powder. Cook this masala base on medium heat until oil starts separating at the edges — this usually takes 6-8 minutes and is the step most people rush, so don't skip it.
Add the chopped vegetables and mix well so every piece is coated in the masala. Add the Mix Sabji Masala, salt, and about a cup of water depending on how thick you want the gravy. Cover and simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender but not mushy. Finish with a generous handful of fresh coriander leaves.
Tips for the Best Mixed Vegetable Curry
- Cut all vegetables to roughly the same size so they cook evenly.
- Add harder vegetables like potato and carrot first, softer ones like peas towards the end.
- Roast the Mix Sabji Masala for 20-30 seconds in the hot oil before adding water — it wakes up the essential oils and deepens the flavour.
- For a richer restaurant-style finish, stir in a spoon of fresh cream just before serving.
Serving Suggestions
This mix veg sabzi pairs beautifully with tandoori roti, plain paratha, or steamed rice and dal. It also works well as a quick lunchbox filling for stuffed parathas the next day.
