  2. THOOM MASALE JA FULKA / SEYAL FULKA 2.0🧄🥬 Thoom masale ja fulka — spicy, garlicky, and full of flavour✨✨☀️ Here is the recipe✨☀️ For the Sao Masalo (Green Masala): - Garlic – 6 to 10 cloves (adjust to your love for garlic; Sindhis usually go generous) - Fresh coriander – 1 cup - Green chillies – 2 to 4 (based on spice preference) - Whole jeera – 1 tsp - Salt – to taste ✨✨Pound all this together in a mortar-pestle (haman dasta) or blend coarsely in a mixie. ✨✨Once done, transfer to a bowl and add: - Red chilli powder – to taste (optional) - Haldi – ¼ tsp - Coriander powder – 2 tsp - Oil – 2 tsp ✨✨Mix well and your masala is ready. To Assemble & Cook: ✨✨Take 2 leftover rotis (or freshly made ones that have cooled for about an hour). ✨✨Spread the masala on one half of each roti and fold the other half over. You’ll now have 2 semi-circular stuffed rotis. ✨✨Heat a flat pan and add: 2–3 tsp oil ✨✨Place the stuffed rotis on the pan and cook on medium heat till both sides are golden and crisp. ✨✨Now comes the Sindhi touch Add about ¼ cup water to the pan (per roti), cover with a lid, and let it cook on low heat for 2–3 minutes until the water is absorbed and the rotis soften inside. If you’re cooking both rotis together like I did, add half a cup of water. ✨✨To Serve: Cut each fulka in half and serve hot with dahi and papad♥️ These are also delicious on thier own! 🫶#sindhifood #beyonddalpakwaan #sindhi #homemade #thoommasalo #seyal #seyalfulka

  3. CHEHRA DODAH✨✨ EPISODE 4 “BEYOND DAL PAKWAAN”❤️✨ One cannot dive deep into the Sindhi culinary world without talking about the humble yet the mighty “Dodah” Made with rice flour and a ton of veggies & greens, Dodah might just be the answer to your gluten free, simple yet delicious morning breakfast and snacking prayers! Here is the recipe☀️☀️ 1 cup of rice flour 2 cups of veggies and greens of choice (Onions, carrots, tomatoes, spinach, methi, potato, green garlic, beans, etc) 3-4 teaspoons of oil/ghee Finely chopped green chillies (1 or 2 as needed) Red chili powder (optional) Salt ( as per taste) . . . Method plus pro-tips ☀️✨ MAKING THE DOUGH💙☀️ - Chop onions, potato, tomato, carrot, spinach, green garlic really fine. Chopper works great🌼 - In large parat or plate, add all the finely chopped veggies and greens. Add salt, green chillies and red chilli powder - Mash the veggies a bit and mix well🌼 - Add in the rice flour and start combining it with the veggies🌸 - Add oil/ ghee and rub it in the rice flour. Continue mixing gently🌸 - The juice released from the veggies is enough to combine the dough. But if the if it feels too dry, add a tbsp of water at a time🌼 NOT ADD WATER UNLESS REALLY NEEDED🫓 - The dough needs to just come together. We do not need to KNEAD IT LIKE WHEAT FLOUR/REGULAR ATTA 🌼 - We only want the dough to be easy to handle and NIETYER not too soft nor hard🌼 Use a teaspoon of oil if needed to make the dough less sticky. Just in case! - Make 4 roundels out of the dough using your hands and keep aside🌼 CONTINUED IN COMMENTS…
