Hey Priya.. Your kadhi pakoda seems to have turned out really appetizing!

Anju Rathore said... Reply To This Comment

Your kadhi looks very tasty.Kadhi is also famous food of Rajasthan.In few rajasthani families they make kadhi almost daily but its little different then Punjabi Kadhi and little spicier.
