Phool Makhana Curry

Roasted fox nuts in a creamy tomato gravy — a festival-day favourite that's ready in 25 minutes.

Serves 3 · 25 min

Ingredients

Method

  1. 1

    Dry-roast 200g phool makhana in a little ghee until crisp; set aside.

  2. 2

    Blend onion, tomato and cashews; cook the paste in oil with garam masala until thick and glossy.

  3. 3

    Add a splash of milk or cream and salt; simmer to a smooth gravy.

  4. 4

    Fold in the roasted makhana, simmer 5 minutes so they soak up the gravy, and serve with roti or rice.

Pantry staples (salt, onion, spices) aren’t added, so add anything else you need from the shop.
