Gujarati Dal recipe collection

Dal Dhokli

See our Gujarati dal recipe choices. From quick one-dish meals like Dal Dhokli to elaborate preparations, Gujjus cook them all. Come lunchtime and Gujaratis do not like to settle for anything less than a complete meal, which they fondly call the “Dal Bhaat Rotli Shaak”. Try your hands on this famous Gujarati Khatti Meethi Dal made by tempering toovar dal with mooli. The addition of jaggery and tamarind pulp provides the dal with its noteworthy flavors.

Another variant of this dal is the Gujarati Toovar Dal, that is simple yet has tongue-tickling flavours. While this is an everyday dal, it takes on a festive hue when ingredients like peanuts and yam are added. For such grand occasions, the Gujarati Dal is boiled over and over again to get the best flavour. Remember that the ideal balance of sweet and sour levels required for the success of this recipe is an art that can be perfected with practice.

Apart from the regular chana, toovar and moong dal, reach out to the jar of urad dal to make lip-smacking Gujarati Style Urad Dal with a hint of curd and an array of spices to give a homely taste. Dal dhokli is synonymous to Gujarati pasta. Dhoklis cooked in dal with an array of ingredients making it a sweet-sour delight. This one-pot meal is a Sunday special at most Gujarati homes.
