Thandi ka mausam is when all the rare vegetables required for Undhiyo are available abundantly in the market. Making this Gujarati dish a complete showstealer! Yummy, tasty and extremely healthy, it makes complete use of all seasonal vegetables which generate heat in the body during the cold winter months.Lots of wedding menus sport this recipe on their special menu. I myself am so very fond of this dish that I make it two-three times in the winter months till the vegetables are available. If you clean, cut and keep all the ingredients ready for this main dish, it saves you a lot of time. It tastes best along with hot puris or phulkas. So do try it once and get hooked onto the unique taste of this awesome main dish.
