Simple is beautiful, Preethi. This dahi tikhari is so pretty and quick to rustle up. I bet it tastes yum with any biryani or pulav too
My vagharelu dahi is so simple, I like your recipe much better. We usually have it with khichdi or rotla. Will be trying out this spicy version soon. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
Love this simple, rustic recipe for Tikhari. I’m sure it tastes like a flavour bomb! It sure looks absolutely vibrant.
Simple and easy recipe! This will be handy to make meals at home on busy days.
That tempering looks very inviting and colorful. It’s very easy to prepare and flavorful too. Can pair with both rice and roti’s.
Simple and yet so yummy, and that tadka looks so good. This would go well with so many biryanis or just as a spread.
