Sindhi Kadhi

#funwithflours - A speciality of Sindhi cuisine - The Kadhi is a blend of all vegetables cooked in a besan / gram flour based gravy. Drumstick is an integral part of this recipe, but I had to omit it due to it's unavailability. It is best relished with plain steamed rice or jeera rice. This is a simple gravy which is both nutritious and healthy.
