Asparagus Masala is a delicious semi-dry gravy prepared with asparagus, onion -tomato masala. The curry tastes great with roti/rice/paratha. My Indian take on Asparagus with flavorful spices.

After traveling overseas my initial trips to grocery stores gave me lots of surprises with many new vegetables, fruits that I haven't seen before. Having no idea how to cook handle those vegetables, I never buy them. Thanks to friends, family, and food network for helping me to get acquainted with all those

Asparagus is one vegetable I came to know from the food network. The way the Chef handled this vegetable was totally different. After reading about its health benefit, I wanted to give it a shot. One day I was telling my husband about asparagus, he told me we should start trying it

I bought a stack of Asparagus with the idea of making an oven-toasted salad with Asparagus and Grape tomatoes. As I used the Grape tomatoes for some other purpose, I was waiting for our grocery trip to buy some more tomatoes for the dish. When I trying to figure out a side dish for roti, Asparagus in my kitchen pulled my attention.

I decided to give Asparagus a try to satisfy my Indian palette. We all liked the taste and  I was glad to use this healthy vegetable by making a subzi. Asparagus curry is my mother-in-law's favorite. I prepared it for the first time when my parents-in-law visited us. To date everyone she visits us, she asks for Asparagus Masala.

Notes

  1.  I didn't add fresh cream since I used milk. If you are going to add fresh/ heavy cream, add 3 tablespoon of fresh cream instead of milk but add water for cooking asparagus and add cream towards the end
  2. Evaporated milk can also be used instead of milk
  3. This gravy goes well with any variety of rice like fried rice/ pulao as well as with naan/rotis
  4. Use any masala powder of your choice
