Step-by-Step Recipe
Step 1: Prepare the Gatte
In a mixing bowl, combine besan, curd, carom seeds, turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala, salt, and oil.
Add water little by little and knead into a stiff dough.
Divide the dough into equal portions and roll them into long cylindrical shapes.
Boil water in a pan and add the rolled dough. Let them cook for 10–12 minutes until they float to the surface.
Remove the gatte from the water, let them cool slightly, and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
Step 2: Prepare the Gravy
Heat oil in a pan and add cumin seeds, mustard seeds, and fennel seeds. Let them crackle.
Add chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.
Add ginger-garlic paste and cook until the raw smell disappears.
Stir in the tomato puree, turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Cook until the oil separates.
Lower the flame and gradually add the whisked curd, stirring continuously to prevent curdling. Add water and bring the gravy to a boil.
Step 3: Combine and Serve
Add the sliced gatte to the simmering gravy and let it cook for 5–7 minutes.
Sprinkle garam masala and garnish with fresh coriander.
Serve hot with roti, paratha, or steamed rice.
Tips for the Perfect Gatte Ki Sabzi
