MAKING OF PAKODAS

MAKING OF KADHI

  • Take butter milk in a bowl. Add maize flour, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala and salt.
  • Give them a good mix leaving besides no lumps. Keep aside.
  • Now take oil in a pan. We are using the same leftover oil in which pakodas were fried.
  • Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
  • Add green chilies, dry red chilies, onion and kashmiri red chili powder.
  • Saute for 2-3 minutes only so that onion turns slightly cooked but don't let the crunch of onion go.
  • Now add seasoned buttermilk while whisking.
  • When the buttermilk begins to boil, and pakodas. Cook for 2-3 minutes so that pakodas absorb the flavours of kadhi.
  • Lastly add kasuri methi and mix.
  • Our Makki ke Atte Ki Kadhi is ready. Enjoy with rice or makki ki roti with a dollop of butter.

Notes

  1. In case you don't have buttermilk, mix 1 cup of sour curd with 3 cups of water and mix well. . 
  2. You can make the same kadhi of besan if want to use buttermilk. Just replace 3/4 of makki ka atta with 1/4 cup of besan.
  3. The butter milk we have used is the liquid left after making Makhan from malai.
