Both the taste and fragrance of roasted gram flour puts a desi temper in the vegetable. When you roast the pumpkin lightly and add tomatoes, green chillies, ginger and spices to it, then it has a slight sweet taste. But as soon as you add roasted gram flour in it, gram flour absorbs a light thick gravy by absorbing its water and binds every spice. This trick is especially good for those who do not like dry vegetables and who need a little gravy, the aromatic desi vegetable of the pan.
To add roast gram flour, first of all, fry 2 teaspoons of gram flour on low flame for 3–4 minutes, until its color becomes golden and there is no fragrance from it. After that, when your pumpkin vegetable is almost ready, then add this roasted gram flour and mix well and cook for 2-3 minutes. If you want, you can also add a little water so that the vegetable is not too dry. This will also increase the taste of the vegetable and the texture will also become excellent.
Pumpkin is made without garlic-onion in many houses, especially during worship or fast. In such a situation, it becomes a bit difficult to increase the taste. But roast gram flour is such an option that is neither forbidden in the fast nor is associated with any religious obstacle. Also, it brings a different desi touch in the vegetable which is liked by children to the elderly. Many people now adopt the same recipe every time and say that “Now the vegetable with Bhandare also seems to be faded.” So the next time you make pumpkin vegetable, definitely adopt this trick once. Add roasted gram flour and see, the taste that you will say yourself – wow! Now pumpkin is my favorite vegetable!
