Come winters and comes the growing season of ponk(tender eco-friendly grains of jowar)in Surat- the gemstone hub asia. But in my opinion, it may certainly be referred to as the meals hub of Gujarat. Whether it is the surti locho or even the periodic ponk&...Surat tickles the best tastebuds always! I've been lucky to possess visited this area a great deal many occasions as my uncle lives here. Of the items I understand there's a particular area in which you get only ponk or products made from ponk. It's mainly offered with spicy sev (Indian crunchy noodles made from chickpea flour paste) and sugar crystals. Its among the best mixtures of different textures. Today I attempted my hands at ponk wadas. They're created using jowar grains and three different flours. Though you can't get the design of eating individuals items of spice for the reason that riverbed, you are able to atleast achieve the flavour to some greater extent. They're super spicy,super scrumptious and super quick.

2tbsp finely chopped eco-friendly garlic clove (I don't add since it is not consumed inside my place)
Method
Ponk is extremely soft in texture. Slightly crush the grains utilizing a mixer (don't turn it into a paste). I made use of a nut cutter to crush it just a little.
Now add water. This is actually the important part. We don't have to allow it to be right into a batter. Add sufficient water to really make it just like a very soft dough. Add little herbal and blend.
