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.
