Vegetable chilli milli

Vegetable chilli milli is a North Indian dish with cashew and tomato based gravy.It contains assorted vegetable with a combination of spicy,sweet and tangy taste.This recipe is definitely a keeper.I adapted this recipe from Raks kitchen and modified slightly.This dish goes well with rotis or rice.I prepared phulkas and soya rice as a combo.North Indian dishes are always a favourite at our place except my hubby dear who is a Amchi food lover.I always hunt for new recipes and try anything that looks appealing.The vegetables in this dish are cut into thin strips as Raks says  it cooks fast.I used the grater to cut into strips.
