MARINATED MIXED VEGETABLES IN TOMATO BUTTER-CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Prepare the butter-cream sauce. Prepare the ginger-garlic paste. Boil the potatoes in water to cover until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain, let cool, then peel and cut them into 3/4-inch pieces.2. Place the onions and vegetables in a large non-reactive bowl. In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, lime juice, oil, ginger-garlic paste, garam masala, fenugreek leaves, cumin, paprika, and salt, and add to the vegetables. Mix well, making sure the vegetables are well-coated with the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 and up to 24 hours.3. Place the vegetables on a baking tray and broil, turning them once or twice, under the broiler, 4 to 5 inches from the source of heat, until they are lightly charred. Alternately, grill over medium-high heat or pan-cook until golden. Transfer to a serving platter.4. While the vegetables are cooking, prepare the sauce. Then cook it further over high heat [If you've already prepared the sauce, why do we need to refer again to cook it over high heat to reduce it further.] until most of the juices evaporate and the sauce is very thick, about 10 minutes. Drizzle over the vegetables and serve. (Or, cook the vegetables in the sauce about 5 minutes and then serve.)VARIATION: Cut paneer cheese or tofu into 1/2-inch pieces and cook in the sauce about 5 minutes, before the sauce is mixed with the vegetables.From "1,000 Indian Recipes."

MOM'S MARINATED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly-salted water to a boil. Add the sliced carrots, and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. Drain in a colander, then immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the carrots are cold, drain well, and place into a large glass or plastic bowl.
• Place the green pepper, onion, cucumber, celery, cauliflower, and broccoli into the bowl along with the carrot; set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, mustard, and salt until the sugar begins to dissolve. Whisk in the vegetable oil and condensed tomato soup until smooth. Pour the marinade over the vegetables, and stir until evenly blended. Cover, and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.

TOMATO BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler to high heat.
• Place the tomatoes on a foil-lined, rimmed baking sheet, and place on a rack about 6 inches from the heating element.
• Broil tomatoes until they start to brown and release their juice, shaking the pan occasionally, so the tomatoes brown all over, 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and let the tomatoes cool to room temperature.
• Drain tomatoes and place in a food processor. Add thyme, oregano, garlic, red pepper flakes, and salt. Pulse until finely chopped, but not completely smooth.
• Cube the butter and add to the food processor. Blend until butter is completely incorporated into the tomato mixture, scraping down sides of bowl, if necessary, 25 to 30 seconds.
• Transfer the butter to a small covered dish. May be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
