veg kolhapuri recipe | vegetable kolhapuri recipe restaurant style with detailed photo and video recipe. a spicy mixed vegetable curry recipe originated from kolhapur, maharashtra. it is thick red curry served as main course with roti, paratha, naans and even with hot steamed rice.
my first encounter to vegetable kolhapuri recipe was in pune and my brother who is currently working took me to authentic marathi restaurant. initially i was skeptical, as i knew that kolhapuri dishes are famous for extra spicy curries. however, with the first bite, i was already a huge fan for veg kolhapuri recipe and i enjoyed it with simple roti. to be honest, i could feel the heat of this exotic curry and it was overwhelming. but it did not demotivate me, as i continued and i finished my meal.
besides, i would like to share few tips and variations for veg kolhapuri recipe. firstly, you can add any choice of vegetables to this recipe. in point of fact, you can add soya nuggets, paneer and even brocolli. secondly, if you do not wish to have spicy curry, then reduce the number of red chillies according to your taste. lastly, try to use dry coconut instead of fresh or desiccated coconut. dry coconut or ‘kopra’ would enhance the flavor of kolhapuri recipes or gravy.
finally, i would like to highlight my other veg curries recipe collection from my website. especially, malai kofta, dum aloo, chole masala, veg sagu, palak paneer, kadai paneer and sev tomato nu shaak recipe. also do visit my other recipes collection like,
