After the vegetables are cooked well, remove from the cooker.

Now take a wet grinder and add yoghurt,green chillies,jeera and coconut in it and grind into a smooth paste.

Now add the paste to the vegetables and add salt and sufficient yoghurt to cover all the vegetables and mix nicely.

Add curry leaves and if u want haldi powder 1 tsp (optional) or if you don't want haldi don't add

Now keep the mixed vegetable with curd mixture on the fire and boil till the froth comes up.

Do not keep on the fire for long or else the mixture will curdle.

Now the Avial is ready to be served.

You can have these with rice, chapathi, or paratha.

  1. I don't get half of these veggies here, but still manage avial with whichever I lay hands on. This avial of yours has all the right veggies to make it delectable. Left to me, I am content with just a whole bowl of avial, no need for anything else!
