I always use left over daal and the change the amount of ilimi pulp. I have concentrated tamarind (ilimi) pulp which is much stronger. So I am very careful to use about one tsp or less. I really taste the daal after adding the pulp and adjust it. Otherwise really great recipe. Thanks Snehal. I have made dhokali several times according to this recipe and it has turned out delicious.

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. Hi Sush,

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.
