Ponkh, or tender, juicy pods of jowar is a special winter crop that is very famous in Gujarat. Only for a short duration in winter, it is possible to harvest young jowar grains that are so juicy and tender.

Hence, the Gujaratis feel quite upbeat about it, and even throw parties to celebrate the harvesting of the ponkh. It is used raw, roasted or sautéed to make many recipes.

Here is a ponkh chilla, which is very different from the regular besan chila that you usually make. The addition of ponkh gives it a very nice, succulent mouth-feel.

Serve these healthy hurda pudla to relish them immediately after preparation. You can also try other chilla recipes like yellow moong dal paneer pudina chilla or nutritious chilla.

Tips to make ponk chilla: 1.Adding rice flour make the chilla more flavourful and crispy. 2. Make sure you serve the chilla immediately for the best flavour. 3. The ponk grains should be green in color, soft, clean, dust free and without any infestations or foul odor.
