If you also want your home-cooked vegetables to taste like hotel-cooked vegetables, be sure to follow these simple tips and tricks.

Roast the Spices Properly

When preparing hotel-cooked vegetables, the spices are roasted thoroughly. They are cooked until they release oil.

After adding the spices, fry on low heat for 2–3 minutes.

This enhances both the flavor and aroma of the vegetable.

Using Ghee or Butter

Hotels often add a little butter or ghee to the vegetable to make it more flavorful. Once the vegetable is cooked, adding a little butter or ghee on top instantly enhances the flavor.

Cooking Onions and Tomatoes Thoroughly

The base of the vegetable is often made with onions and tomatoes. In hotels, these are cooked thoroughly until golden brown.

Fry the onions until lightly browned.

Cook the tomatoes until the spices release oil.

Using Cashews or Cream

Many hotels add cashew paste or fresh cream to the gravy vegetables. This improves both the texture and taste of the gravy.

Cooking on High Flame

Many hotel dishes are cooked on high heat, which enhances the flavor of the vegetables. Cook the vegetables on high heat for a while to allow the spices to mix well.

Add special spices at the end.

Hotels often add garam masala, fenugreek leaves, or butter at the end of the vegetable. This enhances both the aroma and flavor of the vegetable.

Don't forget to add the tadka

Sometimes, hotels add special tadka to the vegetable at the end. For example,

Cumin seeds in ghee

Garlic

Dried red chilies

This tadka makes the vegetable even more delicious.
