During Navratri, many people observe fasts and follow specific diets. One popular choice is using ingredients like buckwheat flour (kuttu atta) to prepare dishes like Kuttu Ki Roti and Aloo Ki Sabzi. Here’s a simple recipe for this delightful meal:

Kuttu Ki Roti:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup kuttu atta (buckwheat flour)
  • 2 medium-sized boiled potatoes, mashed
  • Sendha namak (rock salt) to taste
  • Warm water, as needed
  • Ghee or oil for cooking

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine kuttu atta, mashed potatoes, and rock salt.
  2. Gradually add warm water and knead to form a smooth and soft dough. The potatoes will make the dough pliable.
  3. Divide the dough into small portions and shape them into round balls.
  4. Roll each ball into a round roti using a rolling pin. You might find it a bit delicate to handle compared to wheat flour dough, but gentle rolling will help.
  5. Heat a tawa or skillet and cook the rotis with a little ghee or oil until both sides are cooked and have brown spots.
  6. Serve the Kuttu Ki Roti hot with Aloo Ki Sabzi.

Aloo Ki Sabzi:

Ingredients:

  • 3-4 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2-3 green chilies, slit lengthwise
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 tablespoon ghee or oil
  • Sendha namak (rock salt) to taste
  • Fresh coriander leaves for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Heat ghee or oil in a pan. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
  2. Add the cubed potatoes and sauté for a few minutes.
  3. Add slit green chilies and rock salt. Mix well.
  4. Cover the pan and cook on low heat until the potatoes are tender and cooked through. Stir occasionally to avoid sticking.
  5. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.

Serving:

Serve the Kuttu Ki Roti and Aloo Ki Sabzi hot. During Navratri, this meal is commonly served with yogurt, green chutney, or fruit.

Tips:

  • Ensure that the potatoes are boiled well but not mushy for the sabzi.
  • Adjust the spice levels by varying the amount of green chilies.
  • Kuttu flour is gluten-free and tends to be delicate, so handle the dough gently while making the rotis.

Enjoy this traditional Navratri vrat meal of Kuttu Ki Roti and Aloo Ki Sabzi while observing the fasts during the festive season.
