kudhi
Kudhi is a traditional Indian dish originating from the state of Gujarat. It is a savory snack made from a mixture of gram flour (besan), spices, and water, which is then deep-fried until crispy. The dish is typically served as a tea-time snack or a light meal. Kudhi is known for its unique texture, which is both crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The preparation involves mixing the gram flour with spices such as turmeric, red chili powder, and asafoetida, and then adding water to form a thick batter. This batter is then dropped into hot oil and fried until golden brown. Kudhi can be enjoyed on its own or with a side of chutney or pickle. It is a popular street food in Gujarat and is also found in other parts of India. The dish is simple to make and requires minimal ingredients, making it a favorite among both home cooks and street vendors.
