As summer is approaching, the best coolant for the system is dahi kadhi, which is relished by both, the young and the old. Kadhi consists of two main ingredients – dahi and besan. No Kadhi is complete without these ingredients. In this article, we show you how to make Dahi Pakoda Kadhi.
In different regions in India, kadhi is made in different ways, some are thick or thin and some taste tangy or sour. Kadhi goes perfectly when pakodas of any flavor are added. Kadhi is incomplete without adding bhajiyas/pakodas into it. One can add pakodas of any flavor, such as onion pakodas, aloo pakodas, methi pakodas etc.
This dish is not only relished by Gujarati’s but all those who have to bear the summer heat.
