I’m here with yet another steamed dumpling curry – one of the traditional Gujarat and Rajasthan special dish. It is basically a spicy wheat flour dumpling cooked in cluster beans curry.

I made it just once and it instantly became one of our most favorite dishes. So making it repeatedly now. Both I and my younger son really liked it very much .

Actually it should be eaten as such as it contains steamed wheat flour dumplings and vegetable gravy in it. And the best part is… it is a diabetic friendly recipe. If you like steamed roti, then relishing it is actually like eating steamed roti which is soaked/cooked in the subji/curry !

I learnt about this recipe in one of the food group on fb, but later modified as per our requirement. I have added ground(pureed) tomato which is optional. And I also tried making this curry using french beans in place of cluster beans, it also tasted equally good.

Ingredients : measuring cup used – 250 ml
For making Dhokli :
  • Whole wheat flour – 1/3 cup
  • Red chilli flakes/powder – 1/4 tsp
  • Oil – 1/2 tsp
  • Salt – 18 tp
  • Water to knead the dough
For making Curry/subji :
  • Ghee – 2 tsp
  • Mustard seeds – 1/4 tsp
  • Cumin seeds – 1 tsp
  • Cluster beans/gwar phali/gorikayi – 1 cup
  • Tomato – 2 medium sized (chop and puree it)
  • Groundnut – 1/4 cup (adjust)
  • Red chilli powder – 3/4 tsp (which gives color)
  • Turmeric powder – 1/2 tsp
  • Sesame seeds – 2 tsp
  • Coriander leaves – 1 tbsp
  • Salt to taste
  • Water to cook
PROCEDURE :
  • Gather All the ingredients under the heading “for making dhokli” , and knead into a soft dough
  • Divide into portions, and roll it by sprinkling little flour for dusting (do not make it too thin or thick, keep it medium)
  • Cut into small squares ( or you can make small dhoklis by pressing a small portions of it in between two fingers) and keep it ready
  • Heat oil/ghee in a cooker, add in mustard seeds, cumin seeds, sesame seeds, ground nut, turmeric powder and turmeric powder and stir until they splutter
  • Now add in cluster beans, pureed tomato, salt and water
  • When it start to boil, Put the dhoklis, close the lid and give it one whistle (in my cooker 1 whistle was enough, do it according to your requirement)
  • Once the pressure drops, transfer the curry to a container/bowl and sprinkle coriander leaves and remaining 1 tsp of sesame seeds on it and serve
