The sabzi is crafted with spicy sing bhujiya simmered in a buttermilk-spiced gravy, boasting a slightly spicy taste with a perfect balance of sour and sweet notes. Both recipes are quick and simple to prepare. This thali is served during dinner but can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner, with or without variations. I highly recommend giving it a try! Top of Form
The key to making tasty thali at home are
For bajra roti
- Firstly, follow the proportion (2:1 ratio) of bajra flour to hot water. The amount of water depends on the quality of the flour. Also, make sure to knead the dough really well. If there are cracks, the roti will not puff up.
- Secondly, once the dough is prepared, immediately start preparing the rotis; otherwise, the dough will become dry and the roti will not roll properly.
- Lastly, cook the roti on medium flame. Also, sprinkle some water on top of the raw rotis once they are transferred to the tawa. Moisture will help the rotis turn soft and fluffy.
