Kadhi lovers will enjoy this one - a yummy combination of non-fried moong dal dumplings and the traditional gujarati kadhi, this dish is rich in protein – an essential aid to losing weight. Have with pulao or khichadi as a great way to increase the protein in your diet.
Method- Combine the besan, curds and 4 cups of water in a bowl and whisk till smooth.
- Add the ginger -green chilli paste, curry leaves, sugar and salt, mix well and put to boil.
- Simmer on a medium flame for 5 to 7 minutes, while stirring occasionally.
- Heat the ghee in a small non-stick pan and add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds.
- When the seeds crackle, add the asafoetida and red chillies and sauté on a medium flame for a few seconds.
- Add this tempering to the boiling kadhi and cover it immediately (this helps to retain the flavours of the tempering).
- To the boiling kadhi, drop spoonfuls of the prepared moong dal batter and coriander and simmer for 5 to 7 minutes or till the dapkas are cooked and start floating.
- Add the coriander, mix well and serve hot.
Handy tips:- Ensure the moong dal batter is not very thick nor very thin.
- Add a spoonful of the batter to the boiling kadhi and wait for it to float up. If it does not float, it means the batter is too thin. You can add a little besan to the batter and proceed as per the recipe given above.
