ABOUT Lemony Kadhi Malpua RECIPE

This fusion style kadhi is healthy, simple, easy to make and yummy too. I added some kaffir lime leaves for some refreshing lemony flavour. As I had some leftover malpuas (before dunking in the sugar syrup), thought of adding these to the kadhi. Use a cookie cutter to give the malpuas a desired shape and go ahead with the recipe. You will have a different style of kadhi that can be served with rice or chapatis.

Ingredients Serving: 3

Few leftover malpus, cut into desired shape
1 cup yoghurt
3 & 1/2 cups water
few kaffir lime leaves
1/2 tsp. turmeric powder
salt to taste
1 tsp. cumin-coriander powder
1 tbsp. oil
1 tsp. cumin seeds
1/4 tsp. asafoetida
2 slit green chilies
1 tbsp. chopped coriander leaves to garnish (opt)

Instructions

Blend the yoghurt, water and all the dry spices. Heat oil in a pan. Temper with cumin seeds, green chilies and asafoetida. Saute for a few seconds.
Pour over the yoghurt mix and the kaffir lime leaves. Bring it to a boil and simmer on a low flame, by stirring at intervals till it gets slightly thick.
Drop in the malpuas and simmer for 1-2 minutes. Switch off the flame and discard the kaffir lime leaves.
Garnish with coriander leaves. Serve with plain steamed rice, jeera rice, pulao, plain biryani or any type of Indian bread.
