Veg Kohlapuri is a spicy and tasty mixed vegetable based recipe which comes from South Maharashtra. Kohlapur is famous for its spicy and pungent flavours. The Kolhapuri masala is freshly made for the curry. Vegetable Kolhapuri is best served with chapatis, bajra bhakri or jowar bhakri, phulkas and even parathas. We even had it with bread.
