Instructions

Take a bowl and mix all the badi ingredients together and make a thick paste with water and keep it aside for 15 minutes.
For Kadhi, mix together yogurt and gram flour, salt and spices and about 2 cups of water.
Beat well so that no lumps remain and is smooth. You can add more water if you prefer thin gravy.
For tempering, heat oil in a bigger vessel. Add cumin seeds and let it splutter.
Add whole red chillies and sauté till they release an aroma. Add curry leaves and ginger-garlic paste.
Now add the kadhi mix and let it simmer on low flame for 15 minutes.
In the meanwhile, deep fry the badi batter into small dumplings. I keep them small as they absorb the gravy fast. Put the badi in the kadhi gravy that is simmering away.
Cover and cook for 5 more minutes.
Serve with rice or roti.
