Daal chawal is considered to be a simple and easy food all over the world but Burhanpuri daal chawal is different because neither is it simple nor is its preparation method easy.
This Burhanpuri ancient and traditional pure vegetarian dish is the main dish prepared by skilled cooks in big and important events like weddings.
Arhar daal is used in Burhanpuri daal chawal which is prepared with yellow chilli, ginger garlic paste and powdered hot spices in a big deg on a wooden flame by dum method. This daal is very tasty as compared to normal daals. Similarly, rice is also dum cooked in a deg with coconut milk, cardamom and cloves. Here, whether the wedding is in a rich person’s house or a poor person’s house, daal chawal is the first choice of the people of Burhanpur.
