Gujarati Khadi, #2

Hello dear readers! Today I will share the recipe of Gujarati khadi.The recipe was shared with me by my sister Shanta Nayak. She says that she tasted this khadi  back in U.A.E. It was served with green moong . Every weekend they would eat out at a small Gujarati cafeteria just to have this humble khadi served with other Gujarati delicacies. And she re created it keeping that taste in mind. She had shared the recipe randomly in a food group and I am sharing the recipe here according to my eye ball measurement. I have already shared my mother in law’s khadi recipe earlier in the space.
