Basically, boondi ki sabzi recipe belongs to my Nani( maternal grandmother) and used to be commonly cooked in Multan region of Pakistan. She migrated from that region during partition used to cook it sometimes. Then my mother cooks it when there is not much time to grocery shop. When I started sharing these simple Everyday Indian curries or other dishes which used to part of our everyday meals, I did not have any idea that so many people would be interested in such simple recipes. Some pleasures in life are as simple as dipping the bread in a hot bowl of curry. Just scooping the boondi curry with roti or paratha reminds me of my childhood flavours.

What is Boondi?

Tips to make the best Boondi Curry
Make sure the boondi is crispy before adding it to the curry. If the gravy is too thick, you can add more water to adjust the consistency. Do not overcook the gravy as it can make the tomatoes lose their texture and flavour. Add the boondi to the gravy just before serving, as it tends to absorb the gravy and can become soft if left in it for too long.

Boondi Ki Sabzi can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days. Make sure to store it in an airtight container to keep it fresh. Before consuming it, reheat it on low heat, and add a little water to loosen up the gravy.
Serving Suggestions
Boondi Ki Sabzi can be enjoyed with a variety of Indian bread such as chapati, paratha, or naan. It can also be served with plain rice, jeera rice, or pulao. For added crunch and freshness, garnish it with chopped onions, tomatoes. I personally prefer the curry with dry chapati with no ghee at all, Cucumber Raita, Mixed Vegetable Sabzi. Believe me when I say this simple meal tastes more than awesome.
