Undhiyo is a Gujarati dish prepared with varieties of subzis available. During winter, this is prepared as the ingredients in it helps in keeping the body warm and also varieties of vegetables are consumed by one as it is available seasonally.
Undthiyo is a delicious dish which can be served with puri, phulka. I tried my hands on it for the first time and was happy with the result as it tasted "Awesome"
While speaking about mix seasonal vegetables, Undhiyo is somewhat like the South Indian Kavathu Puzhuku or Thalagam (minus the Methi Muthia) made by Keralites and Tamilians during Thiruvathira along with Thiruvathira Kali. In Undiyo,surti papadi is used, whereas for the South Indian version, papadi i.e avarakka is used.
