Shengolya, a traditional Maharashtrian dish is now served at Vandita restaurant in Dahanukar Colony, Kothrud, Pune. This homely restaurant is the only restaurant in Pune that serves Shengolya, along with other rare traditional Maharashtrian dishes.
Shengolya’s dough is primarily made with Hulge (horsegram), shaped into a coil, and then cooked in the same pulse’s simmering broth, flavoured with red chili powder and turmeric. Made fresh every day and severed hot, it hits the spot in every Maharashtrian’s heart. Shengolya has various health benefits as it is high in protein and fiber content. It is commonly eaten during the winter season. Shengolya is a staple in the Marathwada and Vidarbha regions of Maharashtra.
The owner of Vandita restaurant has brought her aaji’s original Shengolya recipe to Pune city. We tried this delectable dish, which is available only after 12pm and is prepared in a limited quantity. Shengolya is now added permanently to the menu due to the rise in demand and popularity.
Shengolya is perfectly paired with their soft Bajari Bakhri, sweet lapshi and spicy thecha. It is like heaven on earth! The meal is so unforgettable that you too might become a regular customer at Vandita.
Shengolya has become rare as it is not available at other restaurants and is time consuming to make at home. Vandita restaurant wants to honor such traditional dishes and give them a new life in Pune. The restaurant adds new traditional dish like Shengolya to their menu every month. Marking Vandita as a special gem that you must visit, to try their famous Shengolya before they sell out.
