Gujarati Dishes Made Better with Varday Groundnut Oil
Discover 4 classic Gujarati recipes that taste even more authentic when cooked in Varday’s pure groundnut oil.
Thepla – The Perfect Start
Soft, flavorful theplas get their earthy aroma and rich golden hue from Varday Groundnut Oil. The natural nutty flavor enhances the taste of spices and methi, making every bite deliciously wholesome. What makes it even better is its freshness — theplas made with Varday Oil stay soft for hours, ideal for travel, lunchboxes, or a comforting breakfast. Whether served with curd, pickle, or tea, they bring the true essence of a Gujarati kitchen wherever you go.
Undhiyu, Jalebi & Puri — The Perfect Winter Trio
This winter delicacy demands an oil that can handle slow cooking, and groundnut oil does just that. It locks in the taste of each vegetable without overpowering it, bringing out the authentic Gujarati flavor of Undhiyu. Paired with crisp, golden puris fried in pure groundnut oil and hot, syrupy jalebis, it becomes a wholesome celebration of tradition and taste — the way every Gujarati household loves it.
Dal Dhokli – A Bowl Full of Comfort
Traditional and wholesome, Dal Dhokli is that one dish every Gujarati family cherishes. When prepared with pure groundnut oil, the dal gets a rich, nutty aroma that perfectly complements the soft wheat dhoklis. The oil helps balance the tang of tamarind, the sweetness of jaggery, and the warmth of spices, giving the dish a beautifully rounded flavor. Each spoonful feels comforting, nourishing, and deeply satisfying — just like a taste of home on a cozy afternoon.
Khaman & Khandvi – Soft, Spongy & Simply Irresistible
No Gujarati plate is complete without the timeless pair — Khaman and Khandvi. Soft, spongy Khaman gets its golden glow and signature tadka from groundnut oil, adding just the right nutty aroma to every bite. Delicate, silky Khandvi rolls become even more flavorful when tempered with mustard seeds, curry leaves, and a drizzle of Varday Groundnut Oil. Together, they create the perfect balance of taste, texture, and lightness — a true reflection of Gujarat’s love for simple yet soulful food.
