Dhuska Recipe

Dhuska is a traditional recipe from Jharkand, India. It is a recipe generally prepared on festival days. Dhuska is prepared by deep frying ground rice and dal batter and is very good to serve for breakfast.

It can be served with aloo ki sabzi, and also tastes very good with mutton curry(Here is the recipe of Jharkhand Mutton Curry which I got from the same friend who shared the Dhuska recipe: Jharkhand Mutton Curry).

This recipe is a part of my new recipe series which I call ‘Flavors of India’ wherein I have requested people I know from various regions of India to share authentic recipes from their cuisine. The credit for this recipe of Dhuska goes to Sonal Verma. Thank you Sonal for this recipe.
