How To Make Gujarati Kadhi?
GUJARATI KADHI- A SWEET AND SPICY YOGURT SAUCE TEMPERED WITH WHOLE SPICES.
Gujarati Kadhi is something that i began to love after moving to Singapore. Strange, isn’t it? I never quite liked this sweetish Gujarati Kadhi while i lived in Vadodara. I still remember bickering with my short term cook over adding sugar to kadhi. She always used to ask me how i ate my kadhi without the hint of sugar. And i always gave her a stare.
But some how, i began missing the Kadhi once i left the place. I even miss my cook. I must admit that i learned this recipe from her. And i rely on kadhi whenever i am short of time. And whenever i make methi theplas, there has to be some sweetish gujarati kadhi to mop them off with. Addition of sugar to your kadhi is optional but highly recommended, especially if you are eating it with theplas and such. I remember this small roadside eatery that served samosa with kadhi. I found this combination very strange yet oh so delicious!. I have never eaten such delicious samosas ever. How i miss Vadodara.
