This gujarati curry looks very unique….does it taste more like punjabi kadi ?
Thank you Ms.Anjana for sharing it with Healthy Morsels 🙂
Gujarati Curries have their own aroma. It’s completely different in taste than the Punjabi Curry. Even in Gujarati dishes , each curry has its own taste than the other unlike the base gravy in almost all the Punjabi curries. I love Punjabi food, but Gujarati food has its own flavors, that makes it different than all the other dishes.
Very unique style of curry, looks very delicious. Thank you for linking with Healthy Morsels 🙂
