Kadhi Pakora<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Kadhi<\/em> is the name for a dish made from chickpeas flour (besan<\/em>) mixed with sour yogurt (khatta dahi<\/em>) or buttermilk. It is eaten in most parts of India. It, however, is more prevalent in the northern part of India in states of Rajasthan, Gujarat, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh. In these states, kadhi<\/em> is made in various forms and generally goes very well with white rice. It is a good substitute for regular dal<\/em> eaten with rice. Kadhi<\/em> can be made plain or with vegetables specially lady finger\/ okra (bhindi<\/em>). In some states even sugar or jaggery (gud<\/em>) is added. However, I like kadhi<\/em> with besan\u00a0pakoras<\/em>\u00a0served with basmati<\/em> rice. Kadhi pakora<\/em> with its traditional tadka<\/em> of mustard seeds, curry leaves and dry red chilis in desi ghee<\/em> tastes great and is a regular Sunday lunch feature in many homes. So, go ahead and try this kadhi pakora<\/em> recipe.<\/p>\n
