Dahi wale Chatpate Aalu and Babbroo.


 Traditional Dogra Festival Food

Take boiled potatoes and cut them into pieces with hands. Heat mustard oil in a pan (Dogra cuisine is mostly cooked in mustard oil). Add dry whole red chillies, cumin seeds, asafoetida powder, followed by grated ginger and turmeric powder. Then add two big grated tomatoes and let the mixture cook on low heat. Once tomatoes are cooked, add potatoes and sprinkle some dry mango powder/ chat masala, red chilli powder and salt. Beat one cup of curd and pour it on the potatoes. Mix well and cover the pan for 10 minutes. Dahi-wale-chatpate-alu is ready.
Finally, fry the babbroos. Dogra women do not use a rolling pin and make round shaped babbroos with their hands (apply little oil on your hands).




Every Dogra must try this on every festival .
