SINDHI TOMATO KADHI / CURRY

Recipe Source & Acknowledgement: Homely Food.

Kadhi differs from region to region, this special Sindhi kadhi is made by using tomatoes, a tangy gram flour based kadhi with full of vegetables. 'Kadhi-chawal' or 'curry chawara' is the most favourite dish among Sindhis. This is no onion-garlic recipe, so my mom loves it. It is really a yummy, delicious and flavorful curry; hope you like it.
