Hing (Asafoetida) - 1 pinch
Salt - as per taste
Meetha Neem (Curry Leaves) - 4-5 leaves
Sugar - 1 tsp

  • Take oil in a pan and add rai, jeera, heeng, curry leaves and broken red dry chillies.
  • Once they all start spluttering, add zuchhini, salt and sugar.

Thanks Kiran. Yes, it is called "Meetha Neem" in Rajasthan and many other such states and yes it is also called Kadi-patha. That is what even I like about blog world is learning new names and new ingredients.
