Maharashtrian Katachi Amati Recipe Video

A special Soup made out of the water that remains after making Puran(is a stuffing forPuranPoli). Katachi Amati is a very yummy by-product of the Puran (Puran is a stuffing for puran poli or bobattu made up of soaked cooked and ground Chana dal mixed with Jaggery). I just love this Amati... very very tastey!
