Best From Waste: Watermelon Sabji

Hello Everyone.
I am back with another recipe post.
This one's from my MIL's kitchen and you will be surprised by how easy it is to make and how yummy it tastes.


The main ingredient of this recipe is the white portion of the watermelon which is left on its skin after you have sliced off the edible part of the melon.

Ingredients:
Melon left over
Tamarind as per your taste
Salt to taste
Sugar
For Tadka
Oil
Curry leaves,
Cumin seeds,
Brown mustard seeds
Asafoetida
Turmeric
Spices
Coriander powder-1 tsp
Cumin powder-1 tsp
Red chilly powder-1 tsp

Procedure
Slice off that portion of the melon that you generally throw away and dice it.


In a non-stick pan, add some oil and just when it gets heated up, add curry leaves, cumin seeds, brown mustard seeds, a pinch of asafoetida and a tsp of turmeric.

Now add the diced watermelon portion, tamarind (just a little as per your taste), all the spices and salt and sugar as per your taste.


Pour in a cup of water and let it simmer for 10 mins.
Tada..your Watermelon Sabji is ready to be relished. Tastes best with Rotis.
