During religious festivals like navaratri, ram navmi, ekadashi etc lot of Indian families practice the traditional form of fasting where they consume only some of food items and fruits. There are several Indian recipes for fasting. One of my favorite Gujarati dish that I often prepare during fast is Farali kadhi (Vrat ki kadhi) and farali moriya khichdi (vrat ki khichdi). Not only during the fasting days but I love the taste of these dishes so much that I also prepare them on regular days. Sometime I also make Sabudana khichdi along with the farali kadhi.

For this easy and simple farali kadhi I am using very basic ingredients that are readily available. Potato, peanut and yogurt with some Indian spices.
