Dahi Arbi Recipe | How To Make Dahi Wali Arbi For Vrat with Video Recipe. Today I am sharing here the recipe of a yogurt based curry which is prepared in North Indian style. Now its the season of navrathri. Most of the people will be taking fasting for navrathri. Navrathri fasting rule in north India is different from the fasting rule in south India. In south India people will just avoid nonvegeterian foods, but in north India, apart from nonvegeterian foods people will avoid many food items. Some flours and grains are not allowed during fasting. Even while preparing curries people won’t add many ingredients during navrathri fasting. I will list here some of the ingredients that we should avoid adding, while preparing north Indian based curries during navarathri fasting
1.Onion and garlic are strictly avoided
2. No lentil and legumes
3. Turmeric powder, Coriander powder, Garam masala powder, mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds and asafoetida are not allowed in curries
4. Common Salt won’t use in curries, instead rock salt will use in curries
In this curry of arbi(taro root). we are not using any of the ingredients that I mentioned above, so it will be a good choice while taking fasting especially for north Indians. It will tastes delicious and it is very easy to prepare this curry within few minutes with very less ingredients. It goes well with rotis, puris, pulkas.
