Every month I am looking at all the different challenges that I am supposed to attempt.
One such interesting one is the North South Challenge. It’s a group organised by Divya of You Can Cook Indian Food where we are divided in two groups. The north team and the South team and every month the one person challenges the opposite team to try out one delicacy from their region.
Like Nabanita Das of Esho-Bosho-Aahare of the North team has this month challenged the Southern Team to make Dhokar Dalna.
I do not know about you I was sure there is dhoka in what I am reading.
It’s totally new to me and my first question was will anyone at home eat it? Should I make it?
So in this indecision I kept postponing making the curry. We are not great fans of mustard oil and to me Bengali food is synonymous with mustard oil.
But I could not shake the idea out of my head I kept reading about the dish trying to cook it mentally.
Crazy am I not?
Finally I tried it with regular cooking oil that I use and the recipe I used was a bit of mix from Nabanita and here and here.
The curry was well liked by all however the dhokar was much more appreciated. So much that I had to make it again today and this time I shallow fried them. Hubby was of the opinion that I should not fry them at all. Wow what a lot of options for snacks! :0
So ladies let’s try out the delicious Dhokar Dalna.
Your dhokar is ready. Let’s make the gravy now…
Thanks Nabanita and Divya for a delicious new recipe that we all enjoyed.
Linking this to North-South challenge
