	'''Kadhi''' or '''karhi''' is a yogurt-based dish originating from [[Rajasthan]], India. It is made by simmering [[yogurt]] with [[Gram flour\|besan (gram flour)]] and [[List of Indian spices\|spices]] until it forms a thick, tangy gravy. It is sometimes mixed with [[pakora]]s (deep-fried fritters). It is often eaten with [[cooked rice]] or [[roti]].

	Although Punjabis may have a strong association with [[Kadhi chawal\|kadhi-chawal]], its origins trace back to Rajasthan, according to Celebrity [[Kunal Kapur\|Chef Kunal Kapur]]. Historically, kadhi was first crafted in Rajasthan before spreading to [[Gujarat]] and [[Sindh]] regions. Chef Kunal elaborates that kadhi was traditionally concocted when households had surplus milk, which was churned into butter, leaving behind buttermilk (chaas) to be used in preparing kadhi.

	Kadhi is generally considered a staple everyday food in many parts of India and is thought to aid in digestion. In [[Gujarat]] and [[Rajasthan]], it is usually served with [[khichdi]], [[roti]], [[paratha]], or [[rice]]. [[Gujarati cuisine\|Gujarati]] and [[Rajasthani cuisine\|Rajasthani]] kadhi differ from the [[Uttar Pradesh]] variety. Gujarati kadhi is a little sweeter than the other variants because sugar or [[jaggery]] is added to it, but it can be made without sugar for a more sour taste. It is eaten without pakoras, and its consistency is slightly thinner. [[Gujarati cuisine\|Gujarati]] kadhi may be made from buttermilk, which gives it a smoother texture compared to yogurt. Variations of this basic dish include the addition of certain vegetables, notably ''bhindi'' ([[okra]]); kadhi containing okra is known as ''bhinda ni kadhi''. In [[Punjab]], kadhi is a simple and quick winter meal. Unlike the rest of India, yogurt may or may not be added – full-fat buttermilk may be used instead, although some households still prefer to use yogurt. Depending on the region, kadhi is commonly [[Tempering (spices)\|tempered]] with red [[chili pepper]]s, [[cumin]], [[coriander]] seeds, [[asafoetida]], and [[fenugreek]] seeds.

	In Western India, especially in coastal [[Maharashtra]] and in the [[Konkan]] region, kadhi is made with ''[[kokum]]'', creating a variant called ''[[solkadhi]]''. Other variants of kadhi in Maharashtra are made with ''kacchi kairi'' (raw mango), which is known as ''aambyachi kadhi'' (raw mango kadhi). Another variant of kadhi in [[Maharashtra]] is made with curd and buttermilk; this is known as ''takachi kadhi''.

	In [[Haryana]], a popular variation is called ''haryanvi hara choley kadhi'', made with ''besan'' and ''hare choley'' (raw green chickpeas) plus pure [[ghee]], which is added during serving.

Pakoras (gram flour fritters) are added for special occasions like ceremonies. It is called ''majjige huli'' in Kannada, ''majjiga pulusu'' in Telugu, and ''mor kuzhambu'' in Tamil; all of these names have similar meanings. In Kerala, it is called ''[[kaalan]]''.

'''Kadhi''' or '''karhi''' is a yogurt-based dish originating from [[Rajasthan]], India. It is made by simmering [[yogurt]] with [[Gram flour|besan (gram flour)]] and [[List of Indian spices|spices]] until it forms a thick, tangy gravy.
