You can even add vegetables like cabbage, knol-khol to saagu. My aunt suggests to add even add beetroot but I usually don’t add it as it changes the color of saagu, but you can add while preparing the red color sagu.
The addition of Khus-khus is optional but it adds a nice richness to the gravy.You can even add cashewnuts if you want.
This sagu would be slightly greenish because of the usage of green chillies and coriander in the recipe.If you want it to be red in color, skip green chillies and coriander in the recipe and add red chillies and tomato while grinding the paste.Also, replace lemon juice with tamarind pulp at the end.
