Dalcha (Traditional Fare)

Biryani is incomplete without this in Tamil Nadu, but I found this good with plain rice & rotis too.

INGREDIENTS: 

Mutton bones: 200 g

Tur dhal/red gram dhal: 1/2cup

Channa dhal/Bengal gram dhal/chick peas: 2 tbsps

Raw mango: 1

Brinjal/aubergine: 3

Green chilli: 2 slit

Onion: 1 sliced

Turmeric powder: 1/2tsp

Biryani masala: 2 tsps (What you’ve kept aside, check recipe of MUNIYANDI BIRYANI) 

Whole garam masala: a few each

Ghee: 2 tsps

Salt to taste

METHOD:

In a pressure cooker, add all the ingredients except ghee.

Pour 2 cups water & cook for 10 minutes.

Stir in ghee before serving.

NOTE: if you don’t like the brinjals over cooked add it last & simmer.

Also, bottle gourd can be used instead of brinjals.
