About Rajasthani Kadhi
The recipe of Rajasthani Kadhi is actually very quick, fuss-free and still is supremely delectable. It does not take much time to cook, as it is made without the gram flour fritters or pakoda. Another good thing about this recipe is that you don’t have to chop any veggies like onions, etc. to make it. Kadhi is often in many Indian households and there are so many ways of making it. This Rajasthani Kadhi also has a unique taste and flavor. I usually make this Rajasthani Kadhi when I want to prepare something really quick to go along with steamed rice or even rotis. Along with this version, the Punjabi Kadhi Pakoda is also a regular at my home. But that is when I have some time at hand and want to make an elaborate lunch meal. The most favorite way of having the Rajasthani Kadhi at my home is also with steamed basmati rice or jeera rice. Sometimes, I also serve it with peas pulao, veg pulao or hot phulkas or rotis. It tastes fab, in anyway you have it.
