Bhajji Curry Vela Amavasya Special

Vel Amavasya Bhajji is a curry made during the harvesting season in villages of state Maharashtra and Karnataka. Bhajji is made in a special manner in Latur City which I am sharing with you.

Bhajji consists mainly of fresh vegetables when the harvesting begins. Farmers go to their farms and prepare this curry along with other food items and have their food celebrating the season. This season is also named Sankranti, Bhogi, Pongal in different parts of India.

It tastes yummy and goes good along with Bajra or Jowar Roti. Having different varieties of Peas and gram flour as ingredients this curry is rich in proteins.

Make this recipe following the steps I have shared and comment on how it tasted. Share with your friends too.
