Methi-Dana Papad ki Subzi

‘Papad ki Subzi’ is a staple food in many Marwari homes; however, this version hails from the Mewari region of Rajasthan and hence has a twist of Methi Dana and Khada Masala to it! Papad Ki Subzi needs very few ingredients and has a flavor that is distinct and fabulous.

Easy to make and great for days when we don’t have a whole lot of vegetables in the refrigerator to work with. It tastes great with chapattis.
