The members of Foodie Monday Bloghop take a lot of effort and thinking in suggesting the themes for each week. This week the theme suggested by Seema was #foodmagbest. That is cook and click pictures of the food cooked which would be suitable for a food magazine. I was a little sceptical in participating in this theme as I was unsure if I could click such pictures. But as it happens every single time, Vibha urged me to try my best and here are my pictures of Kaddu ki Sabzi which is way different from my usual style of clicking. I hope I have done justice to the theme.
Kaddu ki sabzi has a mixed taste. It has a tinge of sweetness because of kaddu or pumpkin used. The tanginess is due to the amchur powder. You have green chilly and red chilli powder to make it spicy and hot. On the whole, it is a very delicious sabzi. This side dish is mainly served in punjabi cuisine. The other pumpkin subzi which can be served with roti is Pumpkin panch poran sabzi

Veena, I love this angle and the pictures are excellent, pls continue clicking like this!..
I like a well-made pumpkin curry, and yours surely looks perfect! Lovely capture! 🙂
Recipe ,i feel it will be yummy taste. I ‘ll try. Pictures are nice
Outstanding pictures, love the composition and the colors!
Veena, Vibha has really pushed you hard this time and I can see it clearly in your images. So beautifully styled with rustic props. As far as the dish goes, Kaddu is one of my fav sabzis at home which goes on repeat mode too as we love it so much. I avoid amchur as it is too khatta for us but our recipe is very similar. Perfect with rotis and the leftovers taste super the next day with the jaggery and spices seeped in.
Absolutely love your clicks Veena and the utensils are to die for! You take amazing clicks so not sure what you’re worried about. As for the recipe, love how you’ve a variety of spices for the humble kaddu.
Im not fond of kaddu, but your images are so attractive, I might even try making the pumpkin subzi, just to try and get it to look like yours. Lovely rustic styling too!
Pumpkin Curry looks so delish.Love the use of Rustic props that takes it to a new level.Amazing share Veena.
This is one of my favourite subzi!! Loved the clicks and your props too!! Beatiful pics!!
Lovely props and beautiful photography di ! Kaddu sabji is my personal favourite and your curry looks so inviting !
love the whole setup here di ! the curry looks so nutritious and I would love to try as well :0
I adore this pic totally. The props and the lighting all bring out the earthiness of this dish. amazing share.
If this picture does not adorn the magazine cover the magazine should shut down. I definitely like this style of you clicking( I like your style in the earlier pics too) and in the admiration of the pictures, I almost forgot to comment on the recipe. I generally make kaduu like this but without the onion. Will try making this style.
