How to make Rajasthani Bajre Ki Khatti Raabdi Recipe

  1. To begin making the Rajasthani Bajre Ki Khatti Raabdi Recipe, mix buttermilk and bajra flour in a bowl & add salt to it. Mix well so that no lumps are left in the liquid.

  2. Cover it with a lid and keep it on side for 1-2 hours. I usually make this mixture ahead of time in the mornings and cook for lunch time.(Traditionally it is made and kept under sun for natural fermentation in an earthen pot)

  3. Add it in a saucepan and cook it in on the low flame with continuous stirring, preferably with a wooden ladle for about 25-30 minutes.You will notice it gets thickened when cooked.

  4. Stop cooking when it reaches about semi liquid/pouring consistency.

  5. Sprinkle raw cumin seeds for garnishing. Raab/Raabdi will be thickened further upon cooling.
