Versatile Indian Kadhi: The Perfect Partner for Khichdi and Rice

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This has been my bro.'s as well as my all-time favourite kadhi! I love it more than my traditional Sindhi and Punjabi curries(all these are Indian). I have had bowl fulls of this in Gujrati restaurants whenever we've gone to those. I love Gujrati food with all my heart(its light and delicious!) and this kadhi is the BEST one ever! The main ingredient use more is ginger. use 1 tsp. of grated ginger instead of 1/4 tsp. Also, I do not use and have never heard of anyone using wheat flour for this recipe. I've made this curry twice in the last 3 days and realised that if I added 3 cups of water instead of 2 and 3/4 cup of sour curd{which I make sour by adding the juice of 1/2 lemon to it}instead of 1, then my curry has a much better consistency{we like it somewhat thin and not too thick}, so I just would like to bring that to light. This is a good recipe to have on hand when time is short and you want to serve - THE BEST with plain simple white Basmati rice! We love it!

    Kadhi,This is an accompaniment with almost all khichdi (rice lentil combos) dishes or even plain rice. You can make adjustments to the basic recipe as per your liking. Eg you may add choice vegetables or pakodis (lentil croquettes)or few piece of papad (raw to boil with kadhi) or spinach and fenugreek leaves. The consistency of a kadhi should be thick enough to coat the back of a ladle.,This has been my bro.’s as well as my all-time favourite kadhi!
