Maratha Style foodie ....Kanda Laun Masala

 My all time favourite food,  this is very hot or what we call in marathi झणझणीत. The bhakri and the curry goes really really well with chilled pepsi.

Bakri, Mutton gravy, Khema balls, Chops sticks, Briyani, Pudina chi chutney is the Thali.
      

                         
Whole of the food mainly is based on the Garam masala or kanda Lasun Masala  (कांदा लसून टिकत).This kanda lasun masala is used in every day food right from making of sabzi to mutton and chicken.


Kanda Lasun Masala (कंदा लसून टिकत ) :  (Measure for 2kg of red chillie powder)

 Garam Masala :
1/4  kg      Corrainder  Seeds  (धने)              ( ಕೊತೊಂಬರಿ )

100 gms    Til                        ( तील)              (ಯೆಳು)
  10 gms    Cloves                  (लवंग )           (ಲವಂಗ್)
