Sat Saagi

I have learnt most of my cooking from my mom and have no professional experience at all. I always wondered that cooking with so many ingredients would be a really complex affair, as the measures have to be just of in the right quantity and they need to go into the preparation at the right time to enhance the flavours.

Well that is what happens when you start to make the complex dishes without getting your basics correct. Sat saagi is something similar, looks complex, but is possibly the simplest dish to make. Sat (seven) saagi (vegetables), as the name suggests is made up by the mash up of seven diverse vegetables and each having their own unique place in the world of taste.

To quickly make you visualize the variety, it is a mash-up of Potatoes, Ridge gourd, bottle gourd, Okra, colocasia (arbi for the lay man), green peas, amaranthus leaves, cluster beans, tinda (indian round gourd)  Phew!!!! So actually if you counted there are more than seven vegetables in there. So the rule is that you need minimum seven in there for the dish to come out well.

The above is some combination and would take some amount of effort to blend them in together, but let us see how simple it could be:
