Farali kothimbir vadi is a crispy steamed snack made with green coriander and rajgira or Amarnath flour. It is a famous Gujarati snack which steamed and then fried. I made this steamed and them shallow fried with little ghee or oil. Farali kothimbir vadi is a great snack or a meal served with vrat ki chutney during fasting days.
Rajgira or Amarnath flour is considered to be a good source of calcium, protein and amino acids. Being rich in iron it also contains magnesium and Vit like A, B, C. It is a very popular grain consumed during fasting days, especially in Navratri. This flour is gluten-free. Read more about rajgira flour here.
Farali kothimbir vadi is soft and sticky at the same time due to Amarnath flour property. It is filling and tasteful snack to serve on vrat or upwas.
