Patodi

Patodi (Patwadi) Rassa is a classic vegan dish from the Vidarbha region of Maharashtra. Steamed, set besan (gram flour) cakes are cut into diamonds and dropped into a hot, spicy red rassa of onion, tomato, ginger and garlic just before serving, so they stay firm. A beloved everyday curry served piping hot with bhakri or chapati.

Ise patodi vadi, besan patodi, patwadi naam se bhi khoja jata hai.
