Dal dhokli


Daal dhokli is an Indian dish common in Rajasthani and Gujarati cuisine, made by boiling wheat flour pieces in a toor dal stew. A similar preparation is called varanfal, or chakolyaa in Marathi. It is commonly pronounced Dar Dhori in Gujurati. In some household traditions it is made out of leftover dal.

Preparation

Daal dhokli can be made with various types of daal. Some commonly used daals include toor, masoor, and moong. The daal is then pressure-cooked with water and tempered with spices to create a stew. The dhokli, or wheat flour pieces, are made by kneading a dough of wheat flour, salt, and water, rolling it, and cutting into pieces.
Some variations add peanuts. Other flavors in the dish can come from kokum, jaggery, and spices like cumin and asafoetida.
