MAKING OF WHITE SAUCE

  • Take a water in a pan and add blanched cauliflower florets, garlic and melon seeds (or cashews).
  • Boil 10 minutes.
  • Drain but save the water for later use.
  • Leave the cauliflower florets to cool down completely.
  • Transfer in a grinder jar. Also add bit (roughly 2-3 tbsp) of saved water.
  • Grind to a smooth puree. Keep aside.
  • Heat oil in a pan.
  • Add cauliflower puree, salt, Oregano, black pepper powder and red chilli flakes.
  • Cook on low heat while stirring continuously. As everything is precooked (boiled) so it doesn't need much time. Just for a minute or two.
  • Add a bit of saved water to adjust the consistency and cook.
  • White sauce is ready. Keep aside.

SAUTEING OF VEGETABLES

  • Heat oil in a pan and add all the veggies mentioned in the recipe card i.e. broccoli florets, carrot, mushrooms, yellow, red and green bell pepper, onion and sweet corns.
  • Sprinkle salt as well. Don't add much salt as white sauce too has the salt.
  • Saute on high heat for a minute or two. Don't let the veggies lose their crunch.
  • Lastly add the sauted tofu.
  • Give a good mix for couple of seconds.
  • Drop white sauce over the veggies.
  • Mix well.
  • Serve hot.

Notes

  1. Add any vegetables of your choice which can be eaten just by sauteing.
  2. We have added tofu separately after stir frying so that it may not break while sauteing with rest of the veggies.
