recipe for marathi kadi / marathi kadhi

my wife, gunjan, is extremely fond of marathi or maharashtrian kadi. The recipe is quite simple. Here it goes:

Ingredients
Yoghurt - one bowl
Gramflour - one heaped tablespoon
salt - to taste
sugar - 1 heaped tablespoon
green chilli - 3/4
ginger 1 finger sized (my finger :D)
mustard seeds 1/2 teaspoon
curry leaves about 15-20
oil 3 tablespoon
water 1.5ltr

crush the ginger and chilli

mix the yoghurt and gramflour and whisk together gently (you don't want butter to come out of the yoghurt now, do you!?) till no lumps, to which add sugar, salt, and water. mix well till uniform and add crushed ginger and chilli.

heat oil on high in a deap saucepan and add mustard seeds and curry leaves. after 5-10 seconds, add the yoghurt mix and keep stirring till the boil comes. boil for another 5 mins on high heat, stirring regularly, and then turn heat to mid (4 to 5 o'clock) and stir intermittently for 20 mins. Done :)

Hope you enjoy this :p

cheers
