Dahi pulki

When you have both garlic and mint in the same dish, why would you even think of hesitating before making it? Specially when it is an easy peasy recipe, that also packs the nutritional punch of curds and besan? This is a Marwari recipe I fell in love with and it entirely lived upto its promise.

2 cups curds

5 tbsp besan

1 large onion, chopped fine

Green chillies to taste

1 tsp garlic paste

2 tsp dried mint leaves, crushed

Salt and red chilli powder to taste

3 tbsp oil

1/2 tsp cumin seeds

Method:

Our the curds into a large bowl. Season with red chilli powder and salt. Add crushed mint leaves and garlic paste and mix well. Add water and mix till you get a smooth consistency. 

Mix onions, green chillies and besan with salt and red chill powder. Add water and mix to get a medium thick batter. 

Heat oil in a saucepan, and drop in single teaspoons of batter in batches. When one side of the phulki is done turn it over to brown the other side. Drop in the curd mix while still hot. 

After all the batter is exhausted, add cumin seeds to the oil, and when it stops spluttering, pour over the dahi phulki

It can be had as an accompaniment, or as a snack.
