A very healthy one pot meal specially popular amongst Gujaratis both in India & abroad. Its very flavorful & enticing.
We often make this dish with or without dumplings for Sunday lunch. It reigns high in regions like Gujarat ,Maharashtra & Madhya Pradesh.
In Gujarat & Maharashtra , this popular dish is known as " DAL DHOKLI " .
