Ingredients

    Directions

    Here's the step by step method for making the best traditional Gujarati khadhi

    Step1

    In a blender, blend together the first 11 ingredients but only using 2 tbsp of the yogurt. Once it has blended smoothly, add the rest of the yogurt and blend it well so all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.

    Step2

    In a medium sized pan on a high heat, add in the butter and the oil.

    Step3

    Then, add in the cumin seeds and the fenugreek seeds and let them fry for half a minute to release the flavours and aromas.

    Step4

    Once the seeds have fried, add in the curry leaves and stir. Slit the chillies from the middle to release the flavours and add them into the pot

    Step5

    Stir well and then add the curry mixture that you blended along with half a cup of water.

    Step6

    It is really important that you continuously stir the curry until it comes to a boil. If you stop stirring, the curry will split resulting in not a very appetising dish!

    Conclusion

    Serve with some piping hot Khichdi and a sprinkle of coriander! Enjoy
