Sidu or Siddu is a Himachal Pradesh steamed yeast bread which is quite famous in this region. Sidu dough is a yeast based dough which is prepared especially with wheat flour. And this steamed bread have a stuffing in it. Though the stuffing can be anything, however the most known stuffing is prominently prepared either with walnuts or paneer along with a combination of vegetables. This steamed yeasted bread is definitely a must to try. Normally served with ghee, dal or with coriander chutney, this steamed bread is quite famous during winter. Warm Siddu is definitely a fabulous dish to taste while the weather is bit chilled outside. Traditionally Siddu is shaped as half moon, however they can also rolled as round buns. Siddu is a typical dish of Himachali cuisine which is definitely a delicious bread. I tried Siddu at home for this month's a monthly event started by me, which is now hosted by Mayuri Patel.
After Haryanvi cuisine, we are cooking from Himachal Pradesh cuisine. I was paired with Sasmita of First Timer Cook, she gave me both wheat flour and ghee. When i googled for a traditional Himachali dish with these both ingredients, i crossed this Steamed bread with different stuffing. I simply sticked with the walnut stuffing which turned this bread as more nutty and delicious. I simply fallen in love with this Siddu at my first bite itself. Yes this bread is dangerously addcitive bread to give a try without any fail. Thanks to Sasmita for pulling me to prepare these incredible Siddu from this fabulous Himachali cuisine.
