Let's admit it. There's nothing better than 'breakfast-on-bed' while being tucked in your cosy blanket on a cold winter morning. Winter mornings call for a hot cup of tea and wholesome breakfast. We all enjoy parathas and sandwiches with stuffing made of fresh seasonal vegetables. Imagine those hot gobi parathas and methi parathas with a dollop of makkhan (white butter) on it and achar by the side. Sounds appetising, right?! Alongside offering flavours to your palate, these recipes also include the goodness of the seasonal vegetables. But the same old menu can be boring at times. Hence, we are in constant search for a variety of dishes to add some spice to the palate and diversity on the plate.
Considering the above factors, we found a delicious breakfast recipe to fulfil all your wishes. It is the popular Maharashtrian dish Kobichi Vadi. Kobichi Vadi is basically a healthy cabbage fritter, made with just a drop or two of oil.
