I remember reading in Smt. Kamalabai Ogale's Ruchira - Marathi cooking encyclopedia - about milk and yogurt/buttermilk based pithale. One busy day, when I was in the process of making "Pithale-Bhakar", I decided to use milk. This is what I did - Dudhache Pithale दुधाचे पिठले Ingredients Whisk together till no lumps 1/2 cup besan/chickpea flour 1 cup whole milk Tempering 1 tsp oil 1/2 tsp mustard seeds 1/2 tsp turmeric powder 1/4 tsp asafoetida 1/2 tsp cumin seeds 1 sprig curry leaves, torn 2-3 green chilies, slit, minced or ground - based on the desired heat Salt to taste 1 cup water Method 1. Whisk besan/chickpea flour and milk till there are no lumps 2. Heat oil in a kadhai. Add all the ingredients for tempering. As they start spluttering, add water & bring to boil. 3. Add salt to taste. Remember that you are going to add besan + Milk mixture later so adjust salt accordingly. 4. Switch gas to low. Add besan + milk mixture and keep on stirring till about 5 minutes or so, till it gets a consistency of a pudding. 5. Serve hot with bhakri or plain rice. Note - 1. Use whole or full far milk to get the creamy flavor. 2. Do not use onion or garlic in this recipe. |
