This recipe is absolute fantastic. I did some variation like - add 2 clove in initial tadka & added 1Tbsp of sugar. It's perfect dish for fasting time. Could use it in paryushan as well. Definitely this is a kadhi with twist :)
Green Tomato Kadhi looks like the regular besan-curd kadhi.But different and tastier.My friend who is allergic to besan was very happy when I gave her this recipe, now she enjoys her khichdi with Green Tomato Kadhi.
