No Tomato Peas Carrot Kurma

Next in the No Tomato Series is a Kurma with Fresh Peas and Carrot. Our dinners are mostly Rotis and Sabzi. The Sabzis alternate with North Indian Varity and South Indian Varities. However these days one can't specifically narrow down to which cuisine a dish like this belongs to. 

So the one I have for today is something similar to it. It is such a general gravy that it can fit any Indian Cuisine. We mostly end up making such mildly masala based gravies as side dish for rotis for every day meal. 

I was thinking about this theme when the tomatoes were costly so much. However we came around having this theme now when the tomatoes are not so pricy, still I am sure its going to be helpful later!
