Soya Ball Kadhi | Soyabean Sabzi | Punjabi Kadhi with Mealmaker

Kadhi a Traditional dish for Rajasthan and Punjab. There is no much more variation to make kadhi in both the regions. But difference makes for the spices. Each region uses some different spices for their kadhi preparations. Still its similar. Some people like to add curry leaves,some wont. Anyway if you ask me about kadhi,then for me its sounds great as I love this kadhi very much. In summer season its a perfect dish for everyone since lots of curds are using here and curds cool down the body temperature. In kadhi you can add variety vegetables as well as pakoras too. Gatte ki kadhi or gatte ki sabzi is very famous in Rajasthan. But this time i tried some different. I made this mouthwatering kadhi with soyabean / mealmaker / nutrela . Its really healthy and tasty for all of us. A simple and easy method is following here.And i know everyone will like this.

Nutritional value for Soyabean is very high.It is good source of Vitamin K,iron,dietary fiber, and iron. Very low in cholesterol and sodium. It is a good source of protein also. And as lots of yogurt is using here, its is good to control blood pressure too.So overall its a healthy preparation.

So Some state or region has its own culture for their cuisines. So we identify them only by their special and identical cooking preparation which are really well known by all of us.As for example For Mughlai khana we always know that Biriyani is the most favorable delicacy. Same to same Awadhi cuisine or Lucknow cuisine has their own specialty too. In maximum cases they are cooking in Dum Puckt style foods means cooking will be done in a big hundi with a lid including all the spices but in low flame.
