Equipment

  • Mixing bowl

Ingredients

  • 2 Cups Fresh coriander leaves
  • 1-1.5 Cups Jowar flour
  • 2 tsp Red chili powder
  • 1 tsp Turmeric
  • 3 tbsp Sesame seeds
  • 1-1.5 cup Water
  • 1 tsp Salt *as per taste
  • Ginger Garlic *optional
  • 6 tsp Oil

Instructions

  • Take fresh coriander leaves which have been washed and dried. Chop them finely. 
  • Add in the red chili powder, turmeric, and salt to it.
  • Mix in the Sorghum/jowar flour. Knead it properly.
  • Using additional water knead the dough. Almost like the Roti/flatbread dough consistency.
  • Finally, use oil for kneading.
  • Make long cylindrical structures with the dough. Roll them in sesame seeds and keep them for steaming in a steamer ( 15 mins) or pressure cooker (2 whistles).
  • Once done, remove it and let it cool. Cut into cylindrical discs.
  • The wadi can be consumed just like that steamed or can be further shallow/ deep fried as per choice.
  • Serve hot with homemade ketchup or green chutney. Or you can just have it plain. It tastes delicious.
