Rotlo

This gluten-free flatbread made from bajra is a Kathiawadi legacy and is much loved. The thickly rolled rotlo is traditionally cooked over a cow-dung fire that imparts a smoky flavour. Now, they are cooked on a tava and then roasted on an open flame. Best enjoyed with ringan no olo (Gujarati baingan bharta) and garlic chutney.

Rotlo is a wholesome, unleavened flatbread made primarily from bajra (pearl millet) flour or jowar (sorghum) flour. It is a staple in many Gujarati households, especially in rural areas, and is often served with various curries, vegetables, or yogurt.

Sev Tameta

This dish uses crunchy sev to top finely chopped tomatoes that are cooked with onions and spices. It’s important to add the sev just before serving so that it doesn’t turn too mushy. It’s often served in many thali restaurants.

Sev Tameta is a delightful and flavorful Gujarati dish featuring cooked tomatoes and onions, topped with crispy sev (fried chickpea noodles). This dish is known for its balance of tanginess from the tomatoes and crunchiness from the sev, making it a popular choice in many Gujarati thalis and street food stalls.

Aamras

Aamras is a popular and traditional dessert from Gujarat, made from ripe mangoes. This creamy and flavorful mango puree is especially enjoyed during the summer months when mangoes are in season. It is often served with puris or as a refreshing standalone dessert.
