KADI GOLE(MAHARASTRIAN KADHI)

                         

                                   

                                         Kadi Gole( Maharastrian kadhi)

We make kadhi in different versions from different parts of India.In South India,we make with buttermilk and turmeric powder mixed with rice paste named as "morr kulambu".North Indian will mix butter milk with gram flour named "kadhi".......Any boiled vegetables can be added to this to enhance the taste.This maharastrian Kadhi is made of GOLE,a dhal dumpling boiled in butter milk and mixed with spices......The dish is awesome and goes well with Rice,Roti.The consistency of dal batter should be very thick otherwise it will break and mix with butter milk.

This recipe I made for Divya pramil's SNC challenge hosted by prerana khanwalkar.So sad that Divya is winding up the SNC group from August.Only one recipe rest to make for this group.It makes me feel so bad but no other way than to go with Divya...............
