Kadhi – Punjabi Kadhi meets the sweet Gujrati kadhi

August 20, 2012 by manjirichitnis 2 Comments

Kadhi is another of my favourite dishes to be made when I want a Typically Indian meal with steaming hot rice fluffy and begging to be eaten with a bowl of home-made kadhi with crunchy pakoras(potato and onion fritters)

Kadhi is basically a a spicy gravy made with curd and bengal gram flour and there are 2 versions , this one made in the Northern part of India called ”Punjabi Kadhi” or the Gujarati Version – where the garnishing is done using long red chillies and it is a delicacy served in most weddings – well traditionally at least, nowadays weddings have ”world cusine” another dilution of tradition … There is also another version called Sindhi Kadhi where tamarind pulp is added and so are few chopped veggies !

This is another recipe which I should have uploaded eons ago ! It was much liked when I uploaded on pic on my Facebook album ”Food and How much I love it” Humm , how much mover ”foodie” can one get , I wonder… 😉

Ok , now for the Ingredient list :

Ingredients for the Kadhi

  1. 2 heaped tbsp besan (Bengal gram flour)
  2. 1 1/2 cups curds (dahi)
  3. 1 tsp ginger-green chilli paste
  4. 2 curry leaves (kadi patta)2 tbsp chopped coriander (dhania)

    […] Gujarati kadhi differs from Punjabi kadhi in that it is sweeter and does not include fried pakoras, I have a fusion recipe for Punjabi Kadi which I tried long ago if you want something a little different why not try my Punjabi Kadhi with a twist. […]
