Steps to make to make Dhokar Dalna or Bengali Lentil Cake Curry (No Onion-Garlic)

1. First Up: Soak the Chana Dal in sufficient water with some salt for overnight or a min. of 7-8 hrs time- Then, straining the water from it- blend it to a thick coarse paste without adding in much water in it at all (in case you find it difficult to grind it just add not more than a tbsp of water into it to blend it nicely)- Set Aside
2. Next: Cut Up the potatoes, wash & gently sauté with some salt & turmeric until light golden brown, set aside-
   Then, heat up a frying pan over the medium flame- Add in the cooking oil with some ghee- Then, add in the Chana Dal Paste, salt & sugar- to taste, hing, dry roasted cumins powder, turmeric & red chilli powders, 2G Paste (Ginger-Green Chilli Paste)
3. Mix everything well together until nicely combined and well blended & keep sautéing until the mixture absorbs the moisture completely & starts leaving the pan on its own-
   Grease a plate/dish with some oil/ghee, transfer/pour in the prepared mixture to it & spread it evenly all along its entire circumference & allow it to cool down slightly before slicing it up nicely to either Diamond/Square/Rectangular Shapes
4. I made it into the Diamonds Shaped which’s how it’s most commonly done almost in every Bong Households-
   Heat up a frying pan over the medium flame- Add in the cooking oil for its shallow/deep fry- I usually go for the shallow frying for the same, strain it well & transfer it to a separate plate/dish, lined up with the kitchen towel/tissues to soak up its excess oil
5. Once that’s done: Heat up the same pan/wok/kadhai: Add in some more admixtures of the cooking oil & ghee- Throw into it the tempering spices mentioned above- Let them splutter & turn aromatic- In goes the chopped tomatoes, add in some salt to hasten the process of cooking it faster- Well sauté until it turns soft & mushy & juicy enough- Add in the fried potatoes, turmeric & red chilli powders, some more salt & sugar (post checking out correctly), cumins powder & hing- Mix well
6. Add in some splashes of warm water & continue sautéing until the raw smell goes off entirely & the oil surfaces upto the pan nicely- Add in some more hot water to adjust its gravy consistency & the potatoes to be well cooked-
   Add in now, the fried Dhoka into it- Cover & cook on the slow flame for about 7-8 mins time- Finally, add in the Garam Masala Powder & a generous dollop of the desi ghee
7. Give it all a really nice-good mix-
   Turn off the flame & Cover it back- Allow it to be in its standing position for another 8-10 mins time before serving it piping hot with hot steamed rice or phulkas/rotis, etc. Now, transfer it to a separate plate/bowl or directly to the platter- Garnish it the way you like it to be- Relish this DELISH ur own way….ENJOY
