Hasi drakshi sasive or sweet and spicy angoor ki sabji is prepared using green grapes, red chili, mustard, jaggery and coconut. Drakshi sasive is a very tasty gravy or curry recipe. Drakshi sasive is familiar by different names like drakshi sasuve, drakshi sasmi, angoor ki sabji, green grapes curry etc.,
This hasi drakshi sasive goes very well with either dose or idli or chapathi or poori or rice. This is a perfect recipe, if you have some not-so-good grapes lying in your pantry or refrigerator. Sometimes it does happen, you buy some grapes and then either it will be sour or it will be tasteless. Samething happened to me..the grapes were not tasting so good. So instead of throwing them, I tried this recipe and believe me it turned out to be a super hit recipe.
I have posted one more sweet and spicy drakshi gojju or raisins curry on this website, which is prepared using raisins or dried grapes.
