In this recipe arbi is cooked in curd gravy along with spices. Dahi ki arbi doesn’t need any onion and tomato so it is a no onion no garlic recipe. It is easy to cook recipe. The main spice which is used to cook arbi is ajwain (Carom seeds).

You may cook this dahi ki arbi whenever you want. Dahi ki arbi goes well with roti or paratha.
