Fry the Cinnamon bars and cloves till they splutter.<br />
Add the chopped onions and give it a few minutes to cook, till the onions are transparent.<br />
Add the curry leaves.<br />
Add the chopped tomatoes.<br />
After the tomatoes are cooked (after five minutes or so) add all the vegetables till they are cooked.</p>
<p>Add the ground masala paste, turmeric powder, garam masala to the pan and add 4 cups of water.</p>
<p>Add salt to taste.</p>
<p>Close the pan and boil the guruma for ten minutes. (Keep stirring the guruma every two minutes or so.)</p>
<p>Remove pan from the stove and pour guruma into a serving dish. Add finely chopped fresh coriander leaves to the guruma<br />
before serving.</p>

<p>This goes well with Idli, Ghee rice and of course puris and parottas.</p>
<p>You can also call this as Parotta Guruma.</p>
