Cumin fried Carrot and Pea Curry

Name: Cumin fried Carrot and Pea Curry
Cuisine: Indian
Ingredients: 1 tbsp mustard oil; 1 tsp mustard seeds; 1 tsp cumin seeds; 2cm piece ginger, julienned; 1 chilli, finely chopped; 2 carrots, peeled and sliced into batons; 2 handful of peas, fresh or frozen; 1 tsp turmeric; 1 tsp salt; 1 tsp garam masala

Instructions

It's really important to use whatever is seasonal so you get the best tasting ingredients available plus seasonal veg will always look amazingly vibrant too. This is a bit of a basic dish, something mum used to throw together when she had nothing else in the fridge and I think we forget that Indian food can be super simple but still packed full of flavour. This is a dry dish that is just simply spiced with warming cumin and mustard seeds with some fresh ginger - what could be better?
