Toovar Ni Sing Nu Shaak

Fresh pigeon pea pods (toovar/arhar ki sing) harvested in winter and cooked whole or shelled with mustard seeds, garlic, curry leaves, and a touch of jaggery — a seasonal Kathiyawadi-Saurashtra vegetable preparation available for only a few weeks each year when the toovar crop is young and tender. The pods have a fresh, slightly grassy flavour distinct from dried toor dal.
