    Gyarsi (Ekadashi) Khadho For AlifBe~38

    September 13, 2021 - By Alka Keswani

    Gyarsi Khadho or the Sindhi Ekadashi food is my pick for the AlifBe of Sindhi food~ 38. The 38th letter in Sindhi script is گ in Sindhi, ग in Devanagari and ‘G‘ as in Ganga, in Roman Sindhi. Gyars: Gyars (Giyaras/ Igyas) is observed on the eleventh day of Hindu Lunar month. In each lunar month two Gyars (Ekadashi) are observed. Like many other communities, even Sindhi people observe the Ekadashi fast. Upvas or fasting as we call it, is an essential part of any culture. There are various ways to observe a fast and there are various types of…

  • Lotus Stem Tikki

    Beeha Ji Tikki|Stuffed Lotus stem Tikki

    December 29, 2014 - By Alka Keswani

    A Sindhi’s love for Lotus stem dates back to pre-partition era and our forefathers loved the nutty flavored, woodsy looking, stringy/hairy stem of Lotus flower so much that they started cultivating it here in India, around their homes, and hence  this Lotus stem or Beeh is still found mostly in Sindhi dominated areas.Those who grew up in areas like Ulhasnagar, Chembur, Khar, Pune, Indore or such other Sindhi populated places, might have tasted, the stuffed Beeh tikki. A signature Sindhi snack, Beeha Ji tikki, is now hardly available in Sindhi eateries and is seldom cooked  at homes. I still remember…

    It seems like ages since I last shared a recipe here ! Life appears to be like a calender being flipped crazily, changing moments into days, days into weeks and weeks into months! And when life seems like a mad rush of events, I tend to switch off my mind towards what’s happening around and distill my thoughts to get a clear picture and a focused vision. That’s what was happening around in past few months  and hence the hiatus! But at the back end some really exciting projects came into my way and I tried to give my best…

    Memories are myopic? Are they?? Well I don’t completely agree to this belief, since I am amongst those who dwell in beautiful past. I hate to look at reprehensible stuff around me, but unfortunately I am always forced to throw myself in pits of gloom, corruption, political vested interests and rising prices and declining bank balances. Pity, I can’t turn my eyes off the budging ugly head of terrorism and hatred but I wish I was allowed to be self occupied, innocent, energetic and bubbly kid forever and ever and ever! Well, I don’t wear wishbones where my backbone ought…

  • Gyarsi Dhodho-Bhaji~Ekadashi Fasting Food

    November 9, 2008 - By Alka Keswani

    Sindhis are observing Vadhi Gyars or Ekadashi fast today. A heavy Dhodho (Flatbread) with potato curry could not be a fasting food for me, but it tastes delicious for sure! Ekadashi means the eleventh lunar day (Tithi) of the shukla (bright) or krishna (dark) paksha (fortnight) of every lunar month in the Hindu calendar (Panchang) (Wikipedia) Sindhis observe Vadhi Gyaras or Badi Ekadashi (Prabhodhini) with exuberance, avoiding grains for the whole day. Evenings are generally spend on arrangements for Tulsi ji shaadi (Tulsi Vivah), followed by the rituals of Tulsi marriage and singing prayers and songs and sharing food. At…

  • Beeh Paalak~Lotus stem in spinach curry

    November 5, 2008 - By Alka Keswani

    Before the invasion of Paneer (cottage cheese) in Sindhi kitchens, Beeh or Lotus stem or kamalkakdi enjoyed the Numero Uno position,where festive food was concerned. Beeh and Dingri (mushrooms) were supposed to be the food for family functions, marriage ceremonies, festivals etc, when nonveg was restricted . Here is an information about Lotus stem that I collected from few wonderful sites . Lotus roots (or stem) nourishes the blood, removes blood stasis and improves blood circulation.Consuming the lotus root also helps your liver function effectively. It is highly lauded for strengthening the heart, stomach and spleen. Apparently, drinking uncooked lotus…
