Hi folks... I am Noopur. long time that I have been off the bawarchi scene.. Have been busy! This is a typical Maharastrian recipe that I learnt from my GrandMa in Nagpur, Maharashtra, INDIA. Though ppl. like this a lot whenever I make it.. I still don't think any one can beat the way my Grandma still makes it at the age of 75+. Cudos Granny!!

Dhirde

Ingredients for Cooking

1 tbsp. of besan.. gram flour
1 tbsp. of wheat flour
1 tbsp. of bajra flour
1 tbsp. of jowar flour
1/2 tbsp. of rice flour
5-6 green chillies finely chopped or more according to taste
10-12 flakes of garlic chopped evenly
2 tsp. jeera whole
1/2 tsp. asoeftida
1/2 tsp. haldi.. or just enough to give colour to the mixture of the flour.
few sprigs of coriander cut finely
1 tbsp. of oil
Salt to taste

Method

  1. Take the above given flours in a bowl.
  2. Add the garlic, jeera, haldi, asoeftida, coriander, chillies and salt to taste.
  3. Add water to the above mixture.. to make it into a thin batter thinner than the batter we make for bhajiyas.
  4. Add 1 tbsp. oil to the mixture and keep aside for 15-30 mins.
  5. Heat a fry pan and add a tsp. of oil.
  6. When the pan is hot enough put some batter randomly.. not the way we make dosas.
  7. You will see the batter getting porous.. it develops pores when it is put on to the fry pan.
  8. Keep the flame high and cover.
  9. When the batter starts leaving the sides of the fry pan.. put some oil around the sides of the Deerde..
  10. Turn and keep for a few mins. till the other side is cooked... Only the first side of  the Dheerde should be brownish.. not both.
  11. Serve hot with some tomato ketchup if you please.
