This is a popular curry of steamed gram flour dumplings in a rich yogurt-based gravy flavoured with fenugreek. Yogurt is a key feature of many Rajasthani curries, which are known for their simplicity. Most households in the region enjoy this regularly as a wholesome vegetarian main course, with chapati or rice. It is gluten-free and delicious.
