Undhiu - Undhiu is a specialty dish from the Gujarat State of Western
India. A large variety of vegetables are skillfully combined with baked wheat koftas
flavored with greens. The spices are unique and the result fabulous.
Accompaniment - They
are traditionally served with any flatbread, French baguette or with rice. A side
dish of yogurt raita (raita recipe given below) and a side salad of Kuchumber (recipe
given below) accompany this dish.
Serving Suggestions for Home - At home I serve Undhiu by
combining it with a package of frozen spinach. This also allows me to stretch a box
of Undhiu to serve my family of four.
Heat a pan. Add half cup water and put the frozen entree in it.
Then,
1. Add a package of frozen or fresh spinach to Undhiu entree. Heat the dish until
the dish is heated through and is bubbling.
Serving Suggestions for Entertaining - Undhiu is an
extraordinary dish for entertaining. It is a work of culinary art and requires a
skill to make it. Guests will enjoy this dish with rice and flatbread.
Combine 2 packages to serve 6 when serving with other dishes.
Combine 3 packages to serve 6 for larger servings. Serve with side dishes of steamed
vegetables, roasted golden potatoes and raita (raita recipe given below) and chutneys,
flat breads and rice pilaf.
Mrs. Amin has created all these dishes and the recipes are a testimony to
her in depth knowledge of Indian food. Her Undhiu recipe is perfect. I am
grateful for the opportunity to try this dish straight out of the freezer. She has an art
of combining tastes and creating superb dishes. America is truly fortunate to
partake in her creations.
