Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Amti is a thin and flavorful lentil preparation, popular in Maharashtrian cuisine. It is made from toor dal (pigeon peas) and spiced with ingredients like tamarind, jaggery, and various masalas.
- Nihari is a stew made with meat, commonly eaten in South Asia.
- Ishthew is a dish that typically refers to a spiced meat preparation, not lentils.
- Xacuti is a spicy curry made with meat, popular in Goa, not a lentil preparation.
Thus, the correct answer is Amti.
