MIXED VEGETABLE CURRY OR LABRA




I had made this dish in satyanarayan puja(Indian ritual)  for guests that's why I have taken vegetables in kgs, If you want to take in low proportion you can), This dish was so tasty that the whole pot was finished, because it’s a mixture of vegetables and less spices it is good for health too. It’s a delicacy of Bengal, Bengali people like to have it with Khichdi, in ritual ceremonies like Durga puja or what puja may it is. Hot khichdi with  Labra combination is great.
