Kadai Vegetable | Kadai Vegetable dry curry | Quick Side dish for Roti

Since so many of you asked sharing this quick Kadai Vegetable recipe that I put together with Paneer & available veggies in my fridge. If you have Cauliflower, broccoli, green peas or sweet corn kindly include them too. Instead of gravy i made it like a semi dry curry. It turned out absolutely delicious. 

I used White Bread to thicken the gravy since I didnt have milk or cashewnuts at home yesterday 😁 You can however substitue white bread with cashewnut paste or make a paste with Whole Wheat flour + 2 tbsp Milk. Couldnt take step wise pics this time. Shall try to take pics when I prepare it next time.
