Kadhi Recipe

By Uma Abhyankar February 23, 2016

Kadhi is a delicious curry made with yogurt and gram flour. It is made in a variety of ways, in different parts of India. In North India, it is made thick in consistency and often has pakoras added to it. In South India, the seasoning added does not include any turmeric, and so the kadhi is white in color.  This kadhi recipe that I share here, is the Maharashtrian way of making it. It is thin, soup-style, and is most often served with moong dal khichadi.

Ingredients

  • Plain yogurt (dahi) or buttermilk - yogurt -1/2 cup or buttermilk -1 & 1/2 cup
  • Gram flour - 1 tbsp
  • Salt - To taste
  • Sugar - 1 &1/2 tsp
  • Oil - 2 tsp
  • Cumin Seeds - 1/2 tsp
  • Aasafoetida (Hing) - 1/8 tsp
  • Turmeric Powder - 1/8 tsp
  • Green chili - 1, Split vertically
  • Curry leaves - 4-5
  • Ginger - 1 tsp grated
  • Fenugreek seeds (methi seeds) - 1/4 tsp
  • Cilantro/Coriander leaves - For garnishing

Instructions

  1. Blend 1/2 cup yogurt, 1 tbsp gram flour, salt, and 1 tsp sugar, and 1 cup warm water, in a blender. (If using buttermilk, then blend 1 & 1/2 cup buttermilk (at room temperature) with the gram flour, salt and sugar.)
