Ponk is just not a snack ,it is an experience of winter in India . It's charm lies in its freshness & simplicity . As it is available only for a few months , it is a treat that people eagerly await.
Ponk also known as Hurda is a tender , roasted , green sorghum grains available only during winters in Gujarat & Maharashtra.
World -wide Gujaratis are crazy about Ponk & dishes made from Ponk . Dishes like Ponk wadas, ponk pettice ponk bhel , ponk chilla are a few very popular dishes . But the most popular is roasted ponk with limbu mari sev sprinkled on it .
Ponk Party ie people on Sundays & holidays visit Ponk fields where fresh ponk is roasted & served hot with limbu mari sev & buttermilk.
I have made Ponk Pettice with kand or purple yam as the outer layer . The taste of this pettice is amazing & it's definitely worth a try .
