Vrat ki Kadhi | Rajgira Kadhi for Fasting | Farali Kadhi
Report
Vrat ki Kadhi is a fasting-friendly yogurt-based curry thickened with amaranth flour (rajgira atta) and flavored with cumin seeds, ginger-green chili paste, and ghee. This kadhi is smooth, mildly spiced, and typically served hot garnished with fresh coriander, making it suitable for special fasting meals.
Description
This Rajgira Kadhi recipe involves whisking together fresh full-fat yogurt with amaranth flour and a bit of water to create a smooth, lump-free base. The kadhi is cooked with ghee and cumin seeds until fragrant, then ginger-green chili paste is added for subtle heat and aroma. The yogurt-flour mixture is slowly incorporated and simmered until thickened, producing a mildly spiced, creamy curry.
The seasoning includes rock salt suitable for fasting, along with optional sugar for balance. The finished kadhi is garnished with chopped coriander leaves and served hot. Its texture is smooth and comforting, making it appropriate for fasting periods or when light, nourishing meals are desired.
