Fafda jalebi
#Dussehra
Pakka Gujarati = Fafda / Gathiya Jalebi + chay + Garba + share market
It won’t be unfair to say that Fafda / vanela gathiya is a signature dish of Gujarat.
The combination of Fafda / vanela gathiya with jalebi is the most sought after combination. The sweetness of the jalebis and the salty-spicy flavours of gathiya or fafda make an interesting combination. Gujarati’s love for this dish can be compared with their love for garba.
It is the most popular breakfast in Gujarat, but gujarati’s can have it at any time of the day. Every day morning you can see people gathering around gathiya-jalebi chops & on Sunday you can see a big crowd as if God’s prasada is being distributed. People are very passionate for their gathiya / Fafda and they have their own favorite chops.
The importance of this dish on Dusherra increases multi fold times. People get into queues starting from early morning. If you can get hold of this on dusherra you are one of the most luckiest.
This dish has been the witness of business transactions worth lakhs & crores in stock, diamond and textile markets.
It is served with green chutney, papaya shredding (sambharo), kadhi & fried chillies.
