My favt bhortas:
Potato
Shrimp
Egg Plant
Pumpkin (same taste as Butter Nut Squash).

Thank you for sharing this.

I like the three combos of potato curry, eggplant curry, and pumpkin, also bhaji, and the ubiquitous jacknut curry all served with rice and dhal.

And that mango achar.

It's our seven curry
