Undhiyu puri is one of the best winter dishes. It is Gujarati traditional food at its best. Basically, it is a mixed vegetable curry. There is a great liking for mix vegetable recipes in India. Most people like aloo gobi matar, veg jalfrezi, mixed cabbage curry. This one is the king of all recipes. It is really elaborate but totally worth the effort. We cook assorted vegetables slowly in a green pesto. Eat it with fried flat bread. It makes a heavenly combination when served with 'Shrikhand'.Traditionally you serve it with dollops of white butter or 'ghee'/clarified butter. However, you can also make it vegan by just avoiding ghee in tempering. Gujarati food is a treat for every vegetarian and aspiring vegan. Rich in colors and taste. It is delightful to see a punch of flavors popping into your taste buds. It's totally yummy!

The following recipe is one of the most meticulous recipes, that we have documented and published.Hence, there are lot of steps to document.
