Big diced onion 1 cup
Long stripes carrot (blanched in boiled water for 2 minutes) ½ cup
Bell peppers (any colours work) diced 1 cup
Zucchini diced ½ cup
Mushroom halves 1 cup
Diced tofu or paneer ½ cup
Broccoli florets ½ cup
Cauliflower florets (blanched in boiled water for 2 minutes) ½ cup
Garlic finely chopped 1 tbsp
Coriander leaves 2 tbsp
Salt 1 tsp
Pav bhaji masala 2 tsp
Cumin seeds ½ tsp
Crushed black pepper A pinch
Cooking oil as per choice 2 tbsp

Procedure

Get all the veggies cleaned, chopped and ready.

In a big non-stick pan add in the oil and let it heat for a few seconds. Add in the garlic and cumin seeds, saute for 30 seconds. Now add in the onions, zucchini, cauliflower florets and carrots. Let this cook down for 4-5 minutes on medium heat. 

Add in the broccoli and bell peppers, let this cook for 2 more minutes. Add in the salt and pav bhaji masala. Let this saute for another 1 minute.

Lastly among the veggies add in the mushrooms and now saute for 1-2 minutes on high flame.

Keep this aside once done. In another small pan add a few drops of oil, drop in the tofu/ paneer. Sprinkle some salt and some black pepper. Saute the cubes on top and bottom sides for 2 minutes each so it has a nice golden brown colour to it.

Now toss the proteins into the veggies.

Garnish these beautiful tossed veggies with chopped coriander and it's ready to be served. This dish is a quick, nutritious and protein packed meal in itself.
