Khatkhate ingredients:

We donโ€™t add brinjal, lady fingers, amla, ash gourd, bitter gourd and leafy vegetables to this stew. Addition of lady fingers makes this dish slimy and should be avoided. Similarly brinjal should not be added because it becomes mushy while cooking. Bitter gourd should not be added as it makes the curry bitter. Onion and garlic should not be added to this curry. Khatkhate is meant to be a pure veg dish.

Khatkhate is served with rice or puris. We donโ€™t add kokum to this stew. Sugar or jaggery should be added to this curry. Addition of jaggery makes this dish tasty. Teffal berry or teffal fruit is a must and without this the dish is incomplete.
