Removing the thick veins means you don't need the folding and smearing steps. The leaves are then rolled and sliced thin instead. Should the masala be ground fine? No. Grind it coarse, not into a paste or chutney. How much besan do I need? Use 2 cups of besan for 10 leaves, or 1 cup for 5 leaves. Too much besan spoils the taste. Why make the batter before cutting the leaves? Resting the batter lets the masala set into the besan and the batter swell, which gives the traditional taste. Can I use sugar instead of jaggery? Yes, sugar works in place of jaggery. Do I have to use tamarind? Traditional patra uses tamarind, but this recipe skips it. You can add tamarind juice if you like. Can I steam patra in glasses instead of bowls? Yes. Use bowls or glasses of the same size, greased with oil. Why add water to the sugar in the tadka? Without a little water, the sugar sets in the oil, so don't skip the 3 tsp of water. How do I know the patra is cooked? Insert a toothpick after 15 minutes of high-flame steaming. If it comes out clean, they are done. 📌 Please Like 👍, Share 📤 & Subscribe 🔔 to Kathiyawadi Swad for more traditional Gujarati recipes! 💬 Tell us in the comments: do you make patra with rolls or in bowls? 🏷️ Hashtags #PatraRecipe #GujaratiPatra #પાતરા #પાતરાબનાવવાનીરીત #KathiyawadiSwad #કાઠિયાવાડીસ્વાદ #GujaratiFarsan #SoftPatra #EasyPatraRecipe #GujaratiRecipe __________________________________ Join this channel to get access to perks:    / @kathiyawadiswad   For any business enquiries you may email us at : teamkathiyawadiswad@gmail.com Please do like share and subscribe to our channel for more videos.
