Dal Bati Churma food shortsfeed

This hearty Rajasthani spread is the ultimate comfort food for me! Dal bati churma - it’s hard to find a more soul-satisfying combination 🤤 Creamy dal, the key component, simmers away for hours infusing it with the most incredible flavor. It’s paired with piping hot bati, fluffy wheat bread perfect for soaking up every single drop of dal! And to take it over the top is churma, a sweet crumbly delicacy. With each bite the soft, tender churma crumbles and mixes with the savory dal bati - absolute heaven! I like to drizzle some ghee over top and serve it with a kick of spicy garlic chutney. The pungent, herby chutney and nutty ghee balance so well with the sweet and savory components. Such a simple meal, yet it showcases the complex symphony of flavors that is Rajasthani cuisine. This soul-warming combination of contrasting textures and flavors is the ultimate Indian comfort meal. It brings back so many fond memories of long train rides across Rajasthan. If you ever get a chance to try authentic dal bati churma, don’t miss it! And let me know what you think - it’s become my go-to for food that nourishes both my soul and my stomach. 🥰
