Joshi's Special Dahi Bada

Dahi is sweet-sour tasting curd while Bada or Vada is a deep fried lentil ball. The Dahi Bada at Joshi Dahi Bada House is equivalent to none other. Ram Chandra Joshi and his family has been running this since 1977 and satisfying the taste buds of the foodies in Indore and the world alike.

Mr. Joshi prepares the dish in style as he flings the Badas in the air and catches them in a bowl full of Dahi. He then picks up different spices in a pinch and elegantly sprinkles them on the Dahi Bada. Watching him prepare his trademark course is truly a visual delight.

Khopra Patties

The appearance of Khopra Patties might make you think what's so different about it. But, take my word; this is not the usual Potato Patties (Aloo Tikki). It is an exclusive Aloo Tikki stuffed with grated coconut and then deep fried. The tangy green chutney enhances its taste further.

#4 GARADU

Shikanji - Does it contain the usual Lime juice?

One will associate Shikanji to the usual Lime water. Ask for Shikanji in Indore and you would be served a glass full of a fusion of Milk, saffron, dry fruits and a bit of tanginess from the Mattha (buttermilk). It tastes more like a glass of Lassi and yet again is a standout Indori street food.

#7 MALPUA – RABDI

Where: Streets of Sarafa Bazaar

Cost: 50 INR
