Amrood (Guava) ki Sabji

Today morning when I was cutting guavas’, my maid asked me that why are you cutting it into small pieces. I told her that I will be making a subji of it and she was totally surprised (and so was I because I thought that everyone must be making this sabji). Then instantly she told me (jokingly) that you must be making ripe bananas sabji also and I said yes. She was surprised again and I was grinning.

I hope you like the sweet and tangy taste of this recipe.
