Recipe
1
Boil all the chopped vegetables including papaya, ash gourd, potato, brinjal, drumstick, and green peas in a deep pan with sufficient water and salt until tender.

Once the vegetables are cooked and most of the water is absorbed, pour in the milk and let it simmer on low heat for 5 minutes, stirring gently.
3
In a separate small pan, heat ghee for the tempering.
4
Add cumin seeds, dried red chillies, and bay leaf to the hot ghee, allowing them to crackle and release their rich aroma.

Pour this tempering immediately over the simmering vegetable stew, mix well, and serve hot with steamed rice.
