Kadhi badi pairs fried gram-flour dumplings with a yoghurt and besan gravy. The badi softens as it rests in the kadhi, exchanging its crisp surface for a texture that carries the tang and tempering of the sauce.
It is everyday food with many household signatures: the sourness of the yoghurt, the spices used in the tempering, the firmness of the dumpling and what accompanies the rice.
