A Hotchpotch - is said to be a stew or soup of veggies or meat. A jumbled mixture. This is only with vegetables and a little cooked dal. I picked up whatever there was in the refrigerator - and some readymade masalas.

Moong dal ( green gram split ) - cooked - 1/2 cup
Garlic - 2 pods
Raw mango - 1 small piece ( optional)
Coriander (dhania) powder - 1 tbsp
Chilie powder - 1 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
Oil - 1 tsp
Mustard - 1 tsp
Curry leaves few.
Take a wok. Heat oil.
Add the mustard and wait till it splutters.
And the curry leaves. sauté
Add the shallots, sauté till slightly brown
Add the vegetables. Some water and cook till just tender.
Then add the cooked dal and a pack of Maggi Bhuna Masala and the veggie cube
I had a little piece of raw mango which I added and it gave a tanginess to the dish ( optional)
Add the powders - turmeric, dhania, chillie
Add salt if required.
Serve with hot rice or roti.
