⅛ tsp Asafoetida/ Hing

Steps:

  • Scrap the drumstick skin slightly, cut into finger length pieces.
  • Peel and cube radish. Cut cluster beans also same length as drumstick.
  • For ladies finger, cut the head, tail and slit slightly in the middle.
  • Keep all the other ingredients ready.

  • Be generous with oil. Keep aside and temper with the items given under 'To temper' table.
  • Keep little water ready. Lower the flame completely.
  • Add besan and give quick stir. Make sure not to burn it, but the raw smell should go off and besan should turn golden colour.
  • Add red chilli powder and turmeric, give it a quick stir. Add water to prevent burning. Just a little.
  • Add tomato puree, salt and mix well. Close the kadai with a lid as it splutters a lot.
  • Cook it stirring now and then until it becomes thick paste and oil floats.
  • Now add the sautéed vegetables, cooked vegetables along with the water and add another 1 & 1/2 cups water and mix well. Check for salt. Boil it.
  • When it starts to boil, add tamarind pulp (I used 1 tsp tamarind paste) and boil until the veggies get cooked and the gravy becomes thick.

Tips:

  • Use ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your kadhi will be.
  • Choose the right yogurt: Use plain, unsweetened yogurt. Greek yogurt can also be used, but it will make the kadhi thicker.
  • Don't overcook the yogurt: Bring the yogurt to a boil, then immediately remove it from the heat. Overcooking the yogurt will make it curdle.
  • Add the besan paste slowly: Add the besan paste slowly, while stirring constantly, to prevent it from clumping.
  • Simmer the kadhi until it thickens: Simmer the kadhi for at least 15 minutes, or until it has thickened to your desired consistency.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, red chili powder, and garam masala to taste.
  • Garnish with cilantro: Garnish the kadhi with cilantro leaves before serving.
