Sev is a gram flour deep-fried crispy noodles that first originated from Bikaner, Rajasthan. Sev is a kind of snack that you can have any time you want, there is no perfect time to enjoy Sev. There are a lot of different varieties of Sev is available in the market and Ratlami Sev is one of them. I’m using Ratlam Sev for Sev Tamatar Sabzi recipe because thick and doesn’t dissolve in the sabzi.
Here I am going to share a recipe of Tamater Sev ki sabzi, Sev that is using in this sabzi is thicker than the regular one. This Sev is called Ratlami Sev. You can easily get it from the grocery store or online store. If you are living outside India then you can easily buy it from the local Indian grocery store or even from Amazon Pantry.
Sev Tamatar is a popular Sabji in Rajasthan, this sabzi is also popularly served in Rajasthani Restaurants and Dhabas. The first time, I try this Sev Tamatar ki Sabzi in Jaipur. I don’t remember the exact place but the taste of Tamatar Sev was so amazing.
The masala of this Sabzi is prepared with tomatoes and onions, no other vegetable is used in this recipe. There is no use of any dairy product to make that creamy and silky texture, it’s all-natural. Sev Tamatar ki sabzi is always served fresh with hot chapati otherwise Sev becomes soggy and it will lose its crunch and taste.
It is an easy and instant recipe. You can make this sabzi when you don’t have any vegetables in your refrigerator and you feel lazy to go out for buying vegetables. Sev Tamatar has tangy and little sweet flavors and you will definitely enjoy it for lunch or even dinner. I am sharing the full recipe of Sev Tamatar below.
