Papad Churi


Papad churi is literally crush papad. This is fastest made fun side dish everyone loves. Me and my kids relish papad churi on very busy day. My kids are always wants to help me in kitchen and now with papad churi they become independent when I am asleep or not available and thay want to ditch any disagreeable subzi. And they are so smart to escape from my scoldings for ditching the subzi, they already offer me a plate of Papad churi with a big smile on their face. Then how can I deny such a flavourful offer!

                      Preparation is very easy just need chopping and assembling the dish. Deep fry or roast 8-10 any available papad and crush it. Chopp onion, tomato, and coriander. Dump it in to a Big s iioiiurprise bowl. Add salt, red chilli powder, a spoon of oil and juice of half lemon. Mix well and vollah Papad churi is ready to be enjoy! You can even add boiled chopped potato, raw mango or cucumber as per your choice. I like to keep it simple.. otherwise taste of papad gets dominated by lots of other ingredients.

                     We like fulkas with papad churi. Or Sometimes hot rice and papad churi with ghee. That's it foodies. Nothing fancy but relishing papad churi is a lovely option to any subzi or curry on a very busy or lazy day. I think it should be made atleast on one day of week.

                   I like lijjat papad. Is very huge brand in worldwide for papad. You can buy lijjat papad at any indian grocery store or even on online sites like Amazon.com 
You don't need to make fulkas. You can buy frozen rotis or parathas from indian store. Papad churi can be enjoyed with tortillas as well. Or even with rice or only papad churi like salad. I like that way! 

                So please make this at home as you would not find this on restaurant menu. And even you don't need a Indian friends for this 🤣. This is easy peasy to make and impress some Indian friends, colleagues or neighbour.

             Happy eating foodies 😊

Varan Fal

papad               This lockdown blessed me a long stay at my hometown. Beautiful childhood memories, simple homemade food and long chat with neighbours who are family now! My neighbour Aunt cooks amazing food. When I was child I used to play knowingly in front of her house every evening hoping she would call me inside and feed me that aromatic, mouthwatering dish whatever she has made for dinner. And this trick worked always.. 😉                Varan fal is one of the comfort dish I always adore. This is something special because every house has it's own version of Varan fal. Today my Aunt made varan fal for me, so how can I forgot this dish to share with you!              Basic preparations are same in each recipe, just spices or the way of making is varies. My Aunt makes it with mix lentils like toor dal (pigeon pea), chana dal ( Split chickpea), moong dal ( yellow split mung) Urad dal ( Split black gram) are pressure cooked together with turmeric and salt calld var

Crispy Millet bhakri with brinjal curry.

             Summer is round the corner and this menu poped up in my mind. This is one of the special menu for me. Dharwadi bhakri, kala masla vangi bhaji, kairichi chatni. My neighbour auntie introduced this lip smacking crunchy flatbread to me. This flatbread is called Dharwadi bhakri, means crunchi millet flatbread which belongs to Bidar. Maharashtra and Karnataka border is called Bidar.                    Millet flatbreads are popular accross India. But this dharwadi bhakri is little different as it can be stored for months. Usually me & my daughter like this with special peanut chutney made in mortar and pestle with perticular type of peanuts called Solapuri peanut.                   Vangyachi bhaji is brinjal curry made with special spices paste which is dark in colour that's why it is called kala masala. Kala means black. Dry coconut, dried red chilli, garlic, onion, poopy seeds, sesame seeds are roasted on a flame, then kanda lasun masala with roasted spices
