Notes
- Always pick fresh and tender sheem and spring onions to make this wonderful dish. This will offer the best results. Using tough or overgrown sheem will spoil the taste, flavor, and texture.
- Cutting the vegetables is very important to make this dish. Cut the potatoes into thin slices and make bite-sized pieces of the sheem or broad beans. This will ensure even cooking and ensure crispiness of the dish.
- You can chop the spring onions but it is better to cut them diagonally into bite-seize pieces. This will make the dish look more attractive.
- I use mustard oil to cook this dish. This will add to the authentic taste of the Sheem Spring Onion Aloo Bhaja.
- To get the best results and texture, make sure you fry the vegetables in batches. This will prevent overcrowding the pan and lowering the temperature of the oil to make the vegetables soggy. It will render the right kind of crispiness to the dish with even cooking.
