To begin making the Dal Baati Churma Recipe, we will first making the bati
jaggery - for churma(1/4 cup) - 2
Combine all the ingredients for the Bati together, except the jaggery until well combined
jaggery - for churma(1/4 cup) - 3
Add water to combine it well and make a smooth and yet stiff dough
- 4
Leave the bati dough aside for 20 minutes so it rests and becomes fluffy with the baking powder that we added
baking powder(1 teaspoon)turmeric powder (haldi)(1 teaspoon)garam masala powder(1 teaspoon) - 5
Once the baat dough is well rested, knead again for a few minutes
- 6
Divide the dough in large lemon size portions (about 12 to 15 of them)

Preheat the oven to 180 C and bake the bati in the oven for about 20 to 30 minutes until browned on both sides
- 8
Make sure to keep turning the baatis around, until it is browned from all sides

The batis will tend to crack from the top while it is baking and that's completely natural
baking powder(1 teaspoon) - 10
Once the batis are golden brown in color from all sides, remove them from the oven
- 11
For the churma, I usually make it from the same baked bati balls
jaggery - for churma(1/4 cup) - 12
Take 3 to 4 of them, crush them and combine them with jaggery in a mixer to make a coarse powder
baking powder(1 teaspoon)jaggery - for churma(1/4 cup)turmeric powder (haldi)(1 teaspoon)garam masala powder(1 teaspoon) - 13
And that's it, churma is ready
jaggery - for churma(1/4 cup) - 14
The salt from the batis does not overwhelm the taste and tastes perfectly fine

To make the dal, add all the ingredients into the pressure cooker, except the ingredients for the tadkaAdd 2-1-/2 cups of water and pressure-cook the dal for two to three whistles

- 24
Once done, turn off the heat and pour the seasoning over the dal and serve with the hot baatis
- 25

In a small serving bowl, add 2 batis, lightly crush them, drizzle some ghee over the baked baatis
ghee(1/2 cup)ghee(1 teaspoon) - 27
