Continuing the series of recipes from my native, I am here again with another traditional Oriya recipe, which is basically made in whole Orissa, on any occasion.
Gravy of the dish is basically made with mustard paste, in combination of cumin seeds, garlic and ginger but if it is made on some auspicious day then onion and garlic has to be avoided as per Sasthra. It can be made with any vegetable or combi of lots of vegetable and if, you are non vegetarian then it can be made with fish.
Whenever I visit Orissa I make sure that, I eat this as many as times I get chance to eat or you can say this is one of my most favourite dish. So here is recipe of it:-
