Koshala saga,badi,nadiya bhaja is an odiya dish prepared especially during the 

festivals.It's a pure vegan dish paired with rice/kichdi and dalma. And it's a very popular combination on auspicious days or festivals.Among all green leaves recipes these are my all time favorite!.

You may use vegetable oil or ghee, mustard seeds, cumin seeds (jeera), fenugreek seeds (methi), fennel seeds (pan mahuri), dry chilli (sukhila lanka maricha), curry leaves (bhrusanga patra), ginger, green chilli, salt ,badi(badi is sun-dried lentil and tastes great if added to selected traditional dishes) and nadiya(grated coconut).
