Dahi Kadhi Recipe Hyderabadi, Besan Ki Kadhi

Dahi Kadhi or dahi bade is a Hyderabadi style or Hyderabadi version of making dahi ki kadhi which is made by using Dahi/yoghurt and mixing chickpea flour into it. Check out some more yoghurt based recipes such as kadhi pakora Punjabi style, curd rice, moru curry, boondi raita, shrikhand etc...

Kadhi mainly takes in two ingredients which are dahi and besan and no kadhi is complete without these two key ingredients.

In India and in different regions kadhi recipes are made in different way such as some kadhi recipes taste sour/tangy, some look very thick and some kadhi recipes are thin.

In summers if there is anything that should be preferred with rice is a kadhi or besan ki kadhi which absolutely tastes delicious with rice.

Kadhi goes perfectly if pakodas of any flavor are added into it. Kadhi is incomplete without adding bhajiya/pakoda into it. One can add pakodas of any flavor like onion pakoda, plain pakoda, aloo pakoda, methi pakoda etc...

Summers are the best time to make pakodas as eating curd during summers in any form is the best way to keep ourselves cool. Making curries with curd is the best way to beat the heat.

besan ki kadhi refer to same but this kadhi is a hyderabadi version and hyderabadi kadhi is quite popular in the region of hyderabad and it is a commonly made dish.

Kadhi is basically made by adding besan into it and this is added to thicken the kadhi and to add flavor and the kadhi tastes good if a proper tempering is given to it and lastly by adding pakodas into the dahi ki kadhi.

The dahi kadhi can also be eaten plain and is commonly made during the month of ramadan mainly as an iftar recipe in Hyderabad.

Check out the video procedure for this kadhi below which also has besan pakoda in it and this is a good option to make during summer and also during the month of Ramadan...
