Gujarati Dal Dhokli

Gujarati Dal Dhokli is a Healthy, Satisfying and one pot meal option to be enjoyed with family.
This scrumptious, easy to make dish with a spicy, Tangy and sweet taste could also be served with rice.
It is also known as Dal-Tikki, Dalpithi, Daalpitha, Varan Phal or Chakolya in different parts of india.
It is like an Indian Pasta recipe where the dhoklis (strips or any other shapes) of whole wheat flour dough are boiled and simmered in the cooked Gujarati style Toor(pigeon pea) Dal.
I made dhoklis in the shapes of flowers, hearts, stars, diamonds etc and my son absolutely loved it. This has now become my family's one of the favorite lunch-time meals!

Steps
- 1
For making dough for dhoklis, first combine whole wheat flour, besan, carom seeds, heeng, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, salt and oil. Add water and mix well. Knead into a smooth and semi-stiff dough (but not as soft as we make for roti/chapatis) and let it rest for 15-20 mins.
- 2
Wash the Toor dal and pressure cook the dal with finely chopped tomatoes, salt, turmeric powder, water and few drops of oil to 3-4 whistles.
- 3
Meanwhile divide dough in 2 equal big balls. Roll out the dough ball to big and slightly thick circle. Now cut dhoklis into your desired shapes. Diamonds(Burfi) shapes are easier.
- 4
Keep aside the dhoklis. Now prepare tadka. In a pan, heat oil. Add mustard seeds and curry leaves and green chillis let it crackle. Add crushed hing, ginger, garlic, turmeric powder, red chilli powder and saute for 2 mins. Add cooked dal to this tadka.
- 5
Add 2 more cups of water, tamarind paste or lemon juice, jaggery and some more salt to taste. Bring to a boil, then start adding dhoklis to Dal. Keep stirring so that dhoklis won't stick to one another. Simmer for 10-15 mins or till the dhoklis are cooked well. Garnish with coriander leaves and enjoy hot with ghee!
