Ingredients include potatoes, brinjal, papaya, pumpkin and tomato, which are first boiled together, then fried in oil with diced onion, panch phoran, and green chillies.
Benefits of Santula
The dish is said to be easy to digest as it is not spicy and good for people suffering from stomach disorders.[1] For one prescribed with fresh green vegetables, without spices and oil, nothing could be better than Santula.[2]
