Onions, carrots, capsicum, beans Chopped - 1/2 cup each

Sweet Corns - 1/2 cup

Salt, Garam Masala - As per taste

Cumin seeds - 1 tsp

Method:

1. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a non-stick pan or kadai. Splutter cumin seeds. If using plain vermicelli, then roast it till light brown for 2-3 min on medium flame. If using roasted vermicelli, then add directly, do not roast it. 

2. Add all vegetables and roast along with vermicelli for 5 min.

3. Add salt along with garam masala. Add water. The ratio of vermicelli: water should be 1:1.5, so add 3 cups for water for 2 cups of vermicelli. This ratio of water is very important. This ensures that the vermicelli does not turn soggy or sticky.

4. Cover the kadai with plate or lid and let it cook for 10 in on medium flame. Sit once in between.

5. Once cooked, uncover the lid and let it rest for 5 min in open kadai. Serve hot.
