7. cut the rotis in diamond shape pieces ( dhokali )
8. when daal comes to the boil start adding dhokali pieces one by one to daal ( make sure that the pieces you are adding should not stick to the pices added. for that keep stiring daal while adding the dhokali)
9. now again give it a boil. add cilantro leaves and 1 tsp of oil ( so that the dhokali pieces would not stick to each other )

Hi Hina,
This is a recipe submitted by one of our viewers so I don’t know exactly if the dhokli would become gooey. I have made it before without pressure cooking but it did take quite some time for the raw dough (dhokli) to cook even after giving 1 boil. I am assuming that pressure cooking 1-2 whistles cuts down on that time. If you try this recipe, please post your comments.

Hi Heena,
and the answer is “NO”.Dhokli would not become gooey.(pls refer to step no.9 ) . you are supposed to add one tsp of oil before pressure cooking it and you have to add Dhokali pieces slowly one by one by stirring it ocassionaly .This prevents the dhokli from becoming gooey.
We must pressure cook Daal with Dhokli because 1. it saves lots of time and saves you from atteding the pan by occasional stirring because if you cook them in the pan it would take lot of time and it might stick at the bottom if you dont stirr it ocassionaly.2. Dhokali is made of wheat flour which cannnot be cooked with just one boil. it has to be pressure cooked otherwise you feel a raw taste of the flour while eating.
Presurre cooking the same saves time, cooks dhokali fine and gives a nice mix to all the ingredients together and hence it is recommended
I hope your query is answered well or do post your any query.
pls try this dish , and trust me it is awesome.

Hi Sush,
u can replace the measurements of the Hing and the ajwain according to ur taste.That is fine. Though it seems too much right now trust me when we add Dhokali in to it , it is going to be alright. Tomatoes are optional and u can add it in step 4.
