11 Amazing Navratri Fasting Recipes That Taste Incredible

8. Aloo Ki Kadhi - Tangy Curry Comfort

Aloo ki kadhi adapts the classic yogurt-kadhi idea to vrat-friendly ingredients by using singhara or kuttu flour as the thickener instead of besan. Start by whisking the flour into water to make a smooth slurry, then add to simmering milk or a light yogurt alternative if your tradition allows dairy. Add small potato cubes that have been parboiled, along with seasoning of rock salt and green chilies. Simmer until the kadhi thickens and the potatoes are tender, then temper with ghee and curry leaves for aroma if permitted. This dish is tangy, soothing and pairs nicely with sama rice or plain boiled potatoes. Kadhi is comfort food for many families; this vrat-friendly version gives the same soothing bowl with festival-safe ingredients. In North America, singhara and kuttu flours are available online, and you can prep the potato component ahead to cut active cooking time on a festival day.
