Though I am not a big fan of daal baati and choorma but rajasthani cuisine offers much to tempt my palate. Papad ki sabji, ker and sangria ki sabzi, buttermilk,mirchi bada, mangodi aloo, bajre ki roti etc. the rajasthani cuisine has its own unique flavour and is quite rich. Papad ki sabzi is one of my favourites.will post the recipe for that soon.
Here is the recipe for Mangodi Aloo. Mangodis are basically sun dried ground lentil dumplings. we make this curry often for dinner with paranthas. It is made from ground Moong dal.
