Have you tried roti with daal? Any combination that looked weird to you at some point of time, but consequently you became used to it?

I prefer roti with daal.

Recently someone asked me on GS ’ aap log roti ke sath daal khate ho?'. I was like iss main konsi nai baat hai.. sabhi khate hain.

Apparently, in some communities daal is eaten with rice only. Mughal emperor Babar was also surprised to see Indians eating rice with daal and he wrote in his autobiography ‘Tuzk e Babri’ that these Indians consume grain with grain

Another incident I remember from childhood is when we visit family friends in another town and one of the girl in their family ate omelet with rice. We all were seeing this as egg with rice was not popular in Sindhi community and now egg fried rice are getting popularity very rapidly.

In the south, daal is often eaten with rice not roti. Daal with Roti for us makes for a very bland and unexciting fare and a rather strange combo. We prefer some nice spicy curries with our rotis Rice on the other hand is eaten with various types of daals- tomato daal, palak daal, methi daal etc

how about two chapaatis with daal fillings in between them called bhari roTii…? do you have that in the south?

Re: Daal roti, Anda Chawal

Whole wheat flour rotis- chapatis or phulkas are also eaten as breakfast also in the south but I think in other places, it is a part of the lunch cusine. Am I wrong?

Nope. Is it sweet like Puran poli? Our sweet version has a cooked chana dal paste with jiggery and elaichi flavoring. That is the only thing that has a daal filling but is made of maida not whole wheat flour.

I don’t like daal chawal as well. daal gosht is good combination with roti.

Havent really seen anyone eating ‘daal gosht’ here in India. I have a big friend circle which comprises of people across the country and religions and I never saw it…

@muqawwee123

have you ever tried aam with paratha?

Salad as used with Biryani (like kheera) is totally a new phenomenon to Sindhi people.

Yes yes, ripe mango tastes yumm with both paratha and puri In fact aamras-puri is a standard seasonal offering here in Maharashtra

the dried aamras candies [kachha aam AND pakka aam] are must for me to bring when i visit India…it’s also locally available here but the stock is usually old.

i also LOVE the layed slabs of** AMAAVAT**…so yum!
