Vangi bath powder


Ingredients
Channa dhal
100 gms
Urid dhal
100 gms
Dhania/coriander seeds
25 gms
Red chillies
25 gms or 10-12
Cinnamon sticks
6-7 pieces
Cloves
2-3
Oil
1 tsp
Asafoetida/hing
2 pinches
Dry coconut( grated)
25 gms












Method
  1. Heat ½ tspn of oil in a pan on a medium flame. When it is hot, add cinnamon sticks, cloves, red chillies and hing and fry for 1 minute, taking care not to burn the cinnamon and keep it aside.
  2. In the same pan, add channa dhal and dry roast for 2 minutes and then add dhania and roast for another minute.
  3. Add urid dhal and dry roast for a further 2 minutes. Roast everything together until they are light brown colour, taking care not to burn them. Otherwise the aroma of the powder will change.
  4. Finally when it is cooled, powder it along with shredded coconut and store it in an air-tight container. This powder can be used to make not only vangi bath but also other vegetables like capsicum, cabbage, potato and beans.
