Ulava Charu is a farmer's delicacy. Jab gau mata aur Bhains bhai saab ko bhook lagti hai, toh unke dinner ke liye Horse gram to boil karte hain. After separating the horse gram(horse gram is mixed with hay and fed to cattle), the water is boiled till it thickens, and that's what is called ulava charu. U can add tadka to it, eat with garma garam rice and thoda sa malai...
