Pitod Ki Sabji ( Rajasthani Curry)
Pitod ki Sabzi is a traditional Rajasthani dish. This is similar to gatte ki sabzi but more delicious and tastes similar to paneer ki sabzi, but does not use any vegetable or paneer. Rajasthan is a desert state with little vegetation and that is why people are accustomed to using fresh vegetable alternatives. If there are no vegetables in your fridge and you still want to make something special then do prepare Rajasthani Pitod ki Sabzi.
