Papad boondi ki sabji – A quick, easy and delicious yogurt base curry made with Poppadom and boondi- a Rajasthani delicacy

Papad Boondi ki sabji is a specialty from the state of Rajasthan. As Rajsthan is a dry state and fresh vegetables was not very easily available in summer so gram flour/ besan, lentils,  sun dried vegetables are used in their curries which can be made easily any time.

Besan ki pakodi ,cheela , daal ke papad and mongodi are used extensively in Rajasthan to make curries and the base of the curries are mostly either yogurt or roasted or plain besan/gram flour ,tomatoes are not used much in Rajasthani cuisine. They used a lot of oil and spices in their curries which gives a nice colour and taste to the simple curries.

This papad boondi ki sabzi is a very quick and easy recipe .when ever I am in hurry and want to fix something quickly then I always make this sabzi. You can make this papad boondi ki sabzi with urad daal papad and moong daal papad both but I prefer to use urad daal or chana daal papad to make this curry as urad daal papad don’t become too soft after cooking. You can adjust the spice level according to your preference.

You can also make this without adding boondi but addition of boondi add the taste and gives thickness to the thin curry. You can use curd or ready made buttermilk to make this . Slightly sour yogurt is preferred for this sabzi but lemon juice can also be added if using fresh yogurt. Do try this easy ,delicious and Quick recipe. It taste great with poori, paratha or even with jeera rice and pulao .

I love Rajasthani food and make regularly in my kitchen. The most favorite and often made Rajasthani dishes are –

• Gatte ki sabzi ,
• Ker sangri ki sabzi  
• Aloo Mangodi ki sabzi  ,
• Papad Methi dana ki sabzi ,
• Kachchi haldi ki sabzi 
• Guvar phali ki sabzi
