Ambika Misal, Nasik

It sounds like Misal is my most favorite dish, at least, that's how it comes out from this blog. So be it, after all, I do it more for myself than anyone else.

So this Misal is not new  to me neither to Nasikites. It has been around for last 43 years at Panchavati Karanja, Nasik. It used to be our food stop on the way to home from college. One more peculiarity about this  Misal is, it is served twice a day (morning  & evening sessions) while most of other Misal joints are open only during mornings.


This Misal is made from home made black Masala. So the sample or Tarri is jet black in color, almost looks like a black coffee except for the oil floating over it. The mixture contains Mataki, Chavali, Poha, Farasan. It is not very hot, but black Masala gives a unique & different taste to it.
