Tomato Kadhi | Tamatar Ki Kadhi |

ಟೊಮೇಟೊ ಕಢಿ | ಟಮಾಟರ್ ಕೀ ಕಢಿ |
Now a days plenty of good quality tomatoes are available in the market, so trying to make use of it to the maximum.
I personally like this tomato kadhi very much. It goes very well with our own Karnataka special ‘akki rotti’ (rice roti) as well other than roti, phulka, chapati, paratha and rice.
I have used chickpea flour instead of gram flour and I must say this is a very easy, quick and simple recipe to make.
Here, without fail, you should definitely check the recipe of tomato Kadhi made using a millet flour ie ragi flour or finger millet flour
