I like punjabi kadhi the best. gujarati kadhi is sugary crap. bengali kadhi, didn't know.

I like this one too, it has garlic and fewer ingredients overall: http://www.tarladalal.com/Punjabi-Kadhi-%28-Punjabi-Khana-%29-30901r

I have tried Sanjeev Kapoor's Punjabi recipe, and I liked the results. You can replace the pakodas with veggies if you don't want it to be too rich. We tried making the kadhi with whole benDakAya, and with sliced radish. Worked well with both.

google gujarati kadhi recipe. sugar is a mandatory ingredient in gujarathi kadhi. Looks like these Show Me The Curry bytches are clueless.

I like Sanjeev Kapoor's recipes. They are simple to assemble. Ingredients and process, both are succinct.

By the way Max, these Show Me The Curry hoes are a pair of annoying, clueless cumquats. I remember running into their shows on youtube years ago and rejecting their stuff almost immediately. Did you even PROCESS this kadhi video? You like their presentation and that's fine, but that's not going to get you good kadhi on the table. They took a WHOLE bunch of ingredients and jammed them into this recipe. Take another look at it. It's a fucked up recipe with way too many ingredients.

Best case scenario, watch their vids and jack off to them if these dandiya twirling hoebags turn you on. For better recipes, look elsewhere.

And then there is Sindhi kadhi, which is not even the kadhi as we know it but it's solid in terms of ingredients, lots of veggies. And unlike other kadhis, takes a long time to make.

i do remember following the recipe and making it a a few times. my recollection is that it turned out well. another recipe i have successfully adapted from their video is sabudana khichdi. whenever i tried making it, i used to get an awful lumpy mess. these women had some tips on their video to get it right and it indeed turned out well when i followed it. that's not to say there aren't better recipes out there.  i have to try sanjeev kapoor's recipe for pujabi khadi.  there is a sardar, whatshisface who used to post videos on kapoor's channel. i think he has his own youtube channel now. IIRC his name is harpal singh sokhi. he's another guy whose recipes i like.

haven't tried this, but i like the sardar's recipes usually, so it's probably good.



the running recipe goes on to about 1:26 after which he actually makes the thing.

i am tempted to try this (sanjeev kapoor). but onions, fenugreek etc. in the pakoda is making me rethink. i think i'll pass. :-) i'd rather eat the gujju kadhi (which i really like -- the tarla dalal recipe). texas for the link though. btw, harpal singh sokhi is the brand ambassador of a premise i have give out on rent lately. the restaurant is yet to be opened but i am looking forward to some free and savoury fare.

 you can make plain pakodas and call it not-so-punjabi kadhi... that's what i grew up eating. ... soft besan pakodas done in basic spices in kadhi. Our winter variation would be mattar Kadhi, which is what i make more here.

unequivocal yes. only mustard oil is missing in the tadka (which does not make any big difference).

impy: go for balls kadhi.

i googled after i wrote this and apparently there are a few recipes that use besan flour that are masquerading as mOrkozhambu recipes. so let me amend what i wrote, and say that i don't know any self-respecting mOrkozhambu recipe that calls for besan flour.

I was traumatized by the absolutely horrendous version of the punjabi kadhi served at our hostel mess, so I just can't bring myself to have this stuff till date.

Gujju kadhi is sweet, yuck. Give me a good majjige huLi any day.

Steal the mOrkozhambu and add a little besan flour and call it "Kaadi" and every one goes "woww...".....then P{unjus will add wheat flour and Gujjus will add some sugar.....

Sorry it is still mOrKozhambu...

 When adding yogurt to a recipe (any recipe) and boiling it, it helps to add a little besan (mixed in yogurt) as it prevents the breaking (coagulation?) of the yogurt and the yogurt remains nice and thick.

My best buddy is a Punjabi who serves me kadhi at his home because I love it a lot. Believe it or not, it is similar to what my mom makes called mOrkozhambu.

maybe so kin but besan "spoils" the taste of morkuzhambu. Fresh coconut is ground with green chillies and the well ground mixture is added to thick sour buttermilk or well beaten curds. Note: sourness is very important. This is cooked with gourd and heated at a very low flame till small bubbles start appearing on the surface. Heat is turned off at this crucial moment and the dish is seasoned with kadugu [mustard seeds], menthayam [fenugreek seeds] and redchillies.

Not sure why anyone would want to add besan to this preperation. your binding agent is in your cooking methodology.

KEY: home made curd is important and of course, without the sourness, this dish is useless.

the key to making good mOrkozhambu is cooking on low heat for a long time. that way you prevent the breakdown of milk fat. adding besan is a no-no.

Kadhi without besan is no "kadhi", it's called "khohru" even if it remains uncurdled.

 When adding yogurt to a recipe (any recipe) and boiling it, it helps to add a little besan (mixed in yogurt) as it prevents the breaking (coagulation?) of the yogurt and the yogurt remains nice and thick.
maybe so kin but besan "spoils" the taste of morkuzhambu. Fresh coconut is ground with green chillies and the well ground mixture is added to thick sour buttermilk or well beaten curds. Note: sourness is very important. This is cooked with gourd and heated at a very low flame till small bubbles start appearing on the surface. Heat is turned off at this crucial moment and the dish is seasoned with kadugu [mustard seeds], menthayam [fenugreek seeds] and redchillies.

Not sure why anyone would want to add besan to this preperation. your binding agent is in your cooking methodology.

Kadhi without besan is no "kadhi", it's called "khohru" even if it remains uncurdled.
she's not talking about kadhi.
This is a general statement anyway ... Kadhi without besan is no "kadhi", it's called "khohru" even if it remains uncurdled.

have you considered that what you're hungry for is dick but you're trying to satisfy it with kadi? think about that for a minute. make a good cup of coffee on saturday morning and meditate on that for a good half hour and get back to me with the results.

see, there was no contemplation behind the response, just a litany of complaints and kneejerk denials. I still recommend coffee and deep contemplation

KEY: home made curd is important and of course, without the sourness, this dish is useless.
 Thanks, Imps. I do cook on slow flame for the recipes that i add yogurt, but half the time the yogurt breaks and spoils the recipe. sometimes i even add some ice cubes to cool down the pan before adding yogurt, but no luck. adding a li'l besan really helps. I love that tip!
Anyway, after coming back from india, i'll try both the khadi and morkuzhambu recipes. i hope both of them come out well, esp morkulambu, without having the yogurt coagulated. will see which one i like the best. Wink

Meanwhile, here's a healthy recipe that i tried: sprouted masoor salad
