Kuttu ka dahi vada -Buckwheat flour dumplings in spicy yoghurt (food for fasting)
Kuttu ka dahi vada – kuttu atta is also known as Buckwheat flour or grass seed flour and is a popular fasting or diet food .This is consumed mainly in Northern India during Navratri and on any Hindu fasting day.
During fasting cereals are prohibited so Kuttu,Rajgiri ,singhora flour are used. Kuttu is gluten free so potato or colacosia(arbi) is used with the flour to make poori or paratha.
This is extremely high in protein and fiber and good for heart patients. try this kuttu ka dahi vada when you are fasting or on any day. You can also make different recipes with Kuttu flour.
If you are fasting then do try these-
