Jackfruit'S Dahi Bada
29 May, 2018
Our great poet Rabindranath Tagore when visited other cities and ate lot of dishes. When he returned home he instructed his cook how to make in his own style. Sometimes he cooked himself. This is how Tagore's kitchen enhanced. Sometimes his aunt whatever ate wrote but those are not in systematic way.
The author Purnima Devi one of his family member introduce the recipe in her world famous recipe book. I have searched this lost recipe which is south Indian cuisine.
Normally dahi bada means we know north Indian cuisine, dipped in curd or covered with lot of curd. Spread with sweet chutney and fine sew, sprinkle with chat masala. But this is totally different bada made by jackfruit and tempered with mustard seeds, curry leaves, red chilli and curd.
