Bringing the authentic flavours of Sawan, here are five refreshing Goan vegetarian recipes that are a shift from the crab and fish curries the beach state is known for.
A dry preparation of drumsticks cooked with coconut milk, grated coconut, garlic and curry leaves – the maska saang sukhem is a delicious sabzi that is perfect for the monsoon season.
A vegetable stew made with the season’s fresh produce as well as Indian superfoods like triphal and coconut, the khatkhate is a mildly seasoned, slow-cooked dish that is often prepared during special occasions.
A relatively popular Goan vegetarian offering, the tambdi bhaji a simple and quick preparation, packed with antioxidant properties and immunity-boosting nutrients.
A vegetarian alternative to the popular rava fried chonak and seafood that Goa is famous for, crumb-coating slices of raw banana in a mixture of semolina and dry spice powders is a fantastic accompaniment to dal-chawal.
