Method:
1. Prepare the curry solution
Beat the curd well and add gram flour, turmeric, red chilli and salt to it. Now prepare a thin solution by slowly adding water. Take care that there are no lumps in the solution.
2. Season
Heat oil in a deep vessel. Add cumin, fenugreek seeds, asafoetida, curry leaves, green chilli and ginger. When the spices start crackling, add the curd-gram flour mixture. Cook on low flame for 15-20 minutes and keep stirring occasionally so that the curry does not stick to the bottom.
3. Make Dumplings
Prepare a thick batter by mixing onion, green chilli and salt in gram flour. Fry small pakodas in hot oil. Before adding them to the curry, soak them in lukewarm water and squeeze them so that they become soft.
4. Mix and cook the dumplings
Add the pakodas to the curry and cook on low flame for 5-10 minutes so that the flavors get absorbed.
Serving Method:
Serve the special kadhi with hot jeera rice, basmati rice or masala paratha. You can further enhance the taste by adding coriander leaves and if you wish, some ghee.
