Cooking Instructions
- 1
Grind the ginger-garlic and green chillies into a smooth paste, adding a little water.
- 2
Combine the gram flour, the roasted peanut powder, the coriander leaves, fenugreek leaves, the ground paste, the turmeric, cumin, coriander & asafoetida powders, the dessicated coconut & salt. Add water as required and mix into a soft, smooth dough.
- 3
Place this dough in a round tin after greasing it with oil (I kept it in a stainless steel roti ka dabba) and pat down lightly to level the batter. Steam cook it for 15 mins. I used a rice cooker for this process, you may use a pressure cooker or a steamer.
- 4
Allow the steamed dough to cool. Cut into meat squares.
- 5
If deep frying, then do so in small batches in hot oil. Flip and fry the steamed squares on low -medium heat until golden brown & crisp on both sides.
- 6
Heat oil for the tadka, add the mustard seeds, sesame seeds, the asafoetida, dry red chillies, allow it to crackle and pour this tadka over the fried vadis.
- 7
If shallow frying, then first give a tadka in oil, then put the steamed squares in it, shallow fry on low-medium heat till golden brown & crisp on both sides
- 8
Serve with green chutney or tomato ketchup.

Kothimbir vadi Kothimbir vadi
#CookClickKothimbir Vadi is a savoury Maharashtrian dish made using coriander leaves and besan. Savoury vadis are a type of fritters, where the mixture is first steamed or cooked and then either shallow fried or deep fried.One more type of famous vadi from this cuisine is the aluvadi, which is made using colocassia leaves and besan. These are first steamed and then shallow fried. Similarly another famous method of preparing kothimbir vadi is to prepare a very thick roll of the ingredients and steam it. It is then cut into slices and shallow fried.The method I have used here for the Kothimbir Vadi is the other one, where the mixture is cooked and set into a tray before being cut into pieces and deep fried! In this method, we get vadis which are crisp from the outside and soft inside.

#reststyle - All Mutton lovers, you need to try this authentic Awadhi style mutton curry for sure. Highly recommended. It is simply out of this world. The flavour coming from the kewra water and saffron is awesome. Cream can be added according to individual preference. The gravy is rich, smooth and creamy and can be relished with any form of rice or Indian bread. Kundan means gold and kaliyan means mutton. It is a shahi dish and is told that it was usually prepared for the nawabs. There was the use of gold leaf to this dish to give a royal touch Hence the name.
