Rajasthani Kadhi Recipe – Indian Yogurt Curry

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Rajasthani kadhi recipe commonly served as an accompaniment with some staple foods such as finger millet, rice, or Indian flatbreads. There are several recipes for making Rajasthani kadhi, but my favorite version is the Mangodi Papad Kadhi. I have further enhanced the authentic Rajasthani kadhi recipe to make it more tasty and healthy.

Rajasthani Kadhi Recipe

Health Benifits of Rajasthani Kadhi Ingredients

This authentic recipe has been further enhanced here by the addition of green mango, which has high levels of antioxidants and vitamin C. These antioxidant properties protect the body against cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Additionally, raw green mangoes also help in weight loss, treating indigestion/constipation, and prevent dehydration. Green mangoes increase the secretion of bile acids and clean the intestines of bacterial infections that help in treating liver disorders.

Further, the main ingredient of Kadhi is chickpeas flour which makes it protein-rich, but the addition of sun-dried mung lentil nuggets (mangodi) and lentil pappadum makes it, even more, richer in protein.

Hence, overall if you are able to incorporate this enhanced authentic kadhi version in your meal plan then it will provide your family with far-reaching health benefits.

Adding Tadka to Rajasthani Kadhi

If you want to enhance it further, you can add tempering (tadka) from the top. Avoid keeping it low fat.  Your Mangodi Papad Kadhi enhanced with green mango flavor is ready. Serve as an accompaniment with some staple foods such as finger millet, rice, or Indian flatbreads. If you’d like, you can have it just as a soup as well.

    Do you add the raw Pappad or roast them before adding

      I usually add raw, but if you are little skeptical then first soak Papad pieces in warm water for 10 minutes and then add to the Kadhi. I let the kadhi simmer for a while like 15-20 minutes so that Papad pieces get cooked in the Kadhi. While adding papad pieces to the kadhi make sure you scatter them in the kadhi otherwise there are changes they can get stuck to each other making into a lump of Papad
