brinjal Tag

18 Jun Masale Bhat / Kodo Millet masale Bhat

Masale Bhat is a popular dish in marathi cuisine. Served invariably in Maharashtrian weddings, it is traditionally cooked with vegetables like Ivygourd (Tendli) and Brinjal, mixed with typical Maharashtrian spices like goda masala, and Kopra. But down the line it has changed its avatar with the use of vegetables like Carrot, Peas, Cauliflower, etc. You are free to use them. What differentiates itself from normal Pulav is the use of Goda masala which gives it a distinguished flavour. Another uniqueness of this dish is that it needs no onion & garlic as in pulav. Served with simple raita or even just plain curd and some pickle, it tastes heavenly and is a great recipe for Lunch box. Goda Masala is easily available in the market. If you don’t have access, pl refer to my recipe to make it at home. Here I have replaced rice with kodo millet. And used OPOS technique to prepare this. This masale bhat is simple, easy, time-saving and flavourful. Pl try and let me know.
