KOLHAPURI BHADANG / कोल्हापुरी भडंग

When I had seen Bhadang for the first time, I wasn’t really sure whether I’d ever try this dish. I remember our house owner aunty always have a dabba full with bhadang. Anytime you visit her place she will definitely offer you a plate full of bhadang topped with some chopped onions and coriander. It is peculiar fiery red colour makes you think it’s the spiciest dish in the world. But that’s not true. This is very simple and easy recipe and very low in calorie too. Do try this easy and delicious recipe and leave your feedbacks in the comment box below.
