About
Sindhi Kadhi is a traditional Sindhi dish, known for its tangy and spicy flavors. It’s a gram flour (besan)-based curry, enriched with a variety of vegetables like drumsticks, okra, and potatoes. Tamarind pulp is added for a sour taste, balanced by the spices and besan. Typically served with steamed rice, it’s a staple in Sindhi households and often enjoyed during special occasions or family gatherings. The dish is vegetarian and is both nutritious and comforting.
