Perfect, see this, completely crispy and roasted from insideand when youeat Litti with Chokha like this, then everyone will gocrazy about the taste, today I have brought for you thepride of Bihar, UP and everyone's first love,Litti Chokha, absolutely at home. In this wewill make Litti Chowkha like village taste, in a very easyway, we will not take any tandoor, no furnaceetc., no use of fire, like it ismade on fire in the traditional way,exactly the same texture will be obtained. Feel and the sametaste, this is the trick I am telling you, I willtell you two ways to make Litti,make it as per your wish, Hello friends, I amParul, you are very welcome to Cook with Parul, tomake very tasty Litti Chokha just like the village taste.First of all, we will make Litti flour, sofor that I am taking two cups of wheatflour. Okay, here remember, to make Litti,you have to take only wheat flour, donot use all-purpose flour at all, onlyflour is enough.
Litti is also made deliciousand its taste comes out andthis is where we will addsalt as per taste, about half a teaspoon and only half ateaspoon of celery. Soput the celery on your hand and crush it like this. Theflavor is complete and will emerge. Now thesecond thing that will be required here tomake the Litti crispy isMoin i.e. Ghee. So see here, it is abigger spoon than this spoon.Justadd two tablespoons of Ghee. If you want, youcan also add oil. First, we will mix all the things well, whilemashing them in such a waythat the ghee gets thoroughly coated with the flour everywhere. There is alittle variation in different houses in Bihar and UP. If it is therethen many people also add nigella seeds here.Many people also keep the flour plain,so as you like, if you donot want to add celery and nigella seeds then do notadd them.
Now here the flour you have tomake for Litti is a hard flour. If you want to make it, thenadd water little by little andmix the flour in this way to make a hard dough.By adding hard flour, the shape of littiremains intact when you bake them.If you make soft dough then what will happen, won'tit slowly- When slowly put in the fire, they willbecome flat. If the dough remains hard, then the Litti willremain in perfect shape after being cooked,just like they make in the village,in the desi style.My in-laws have avery special recipe, my husband. Litti Chokhais a big favorite of ours and keeps on making it, sotoday I will share with you the tipsand tricks which I will tell you further. You willget the same taste in this Litti Chokha which is made in the local way by roasting it on fire oron coal etc. It means it ismade on the furnace, take the dough is absolutelyperfect, I have applied hard dough, I amtelling you again, don't forget and justcover it and keep it for 10 minutes, it will give rest, let's do itquickly.
Rest all the work nowmakes the life and glory of Litti. Thefilling of Sattu is the most healthy and tasty. Sotake one at a time. Here I am takingtwo cups of Sattu. Look, this is the kind of Sattuwhich is made from roasted gram. It has alot of iron, protein, mineral fiber, isvery healthy, Sattu is veryeasy, nowadays it is available everywhere, youcan even purchase it online and even if you don't get it, don't worry, these are the ones which are roasted. There are gram seeds, don't you see, these are the ones that we eat, justremove the peel from it and put this gramin a mixer and grind it and filter it once.You can also make Sattu at home in this way.Now the traditional things in Sattu are here. HereI have taken a big sized onion,which I have chopped, chop it finely,here I have taken a 1/2 inchpiece of ginger, chopped it also, along withtwo Finely chop three green chillies as per your tasteand finely chop five-six cloves of garlicand also finely chop a lot of greencoriander. All these things will go in the filling.Now we will add it as per taste.
Add half teaspoon salt and black pepper powder.Also add one teaspoon chaatmasala here. It looks very good. Iwill definitely add it. It tastes very good. Also add1/4 teaspoon celery.Crush it like this and add 1 We will add quarter teaspoon ofMangrela which we also call Kalonji.Now the most important thing whichgoes with the filling of Litti i.e. Sattu is thepickle masala. So see this, I have taken this picklemasala, any pickle which you have in your house.Pickle of red chilli, pickle of green chilli,mango pickle,take out some spice of any of them along with oil.it tastes very goodin this fruiting, understand that thisis the life of the taste, now the nextthing that will go in it is Two tablespoons ofmustard oil is definitely added. Thetaste of the filling comes out very good.If you do not like itthen you can skip it butit is definitely added in the authentic recipe. This gives thetaste the same. If it is then it would be best tomix all the things first and thenjust apply as much water as required. Donot make it into a paste, do notdilute it, justmix it well until it becomes a good consistency andadd a little water.
Of Look, mix it like this,now tie your fist like this and see if it remainsclosed, that is, this is the perfect consistency ofour Sattu filling, anddo a little test like this, it isvery important for the sour salt to be perfect in this. It is only in the filling that thefun of eating Litti is enjoyed, so ourstuffing is also ready, let's quickly make avery tasty and interesting Chokha to be eaten with Litti. Let me tellyou today. Let me tell you how to make my home made desi style bharta so that it gets thesmoky flavor and we donot need anything like coal, so tomake chokha, here I have takena brinjal which is a big brinjal.We will just take these and hereI have taken two big sized tomatoes andhere I am taking two to four greenchillies, you can increase or decrease as per your tasteand.
I have taken six to seven cloves of garlicand these i potato tomato I am making brinjal chokhawhich is very famous in UP and Bihar,so I have taken three boiled potatoes,you can make it without potatoes also,chokha tastes good with potatoes, so I amadding that also because in my house. Husbandlikes it very much, so here I havewashed the brinjal thoroughly, washed it andwiped it well, so first of all look at the brinjal here,make a cut with the knife like this, donot cut it completely, cut the brinjal like this.As such By doing this, you will beable to open it a little and see if there are any insects etc. in it.Thebrinjal is not getting spoiled.Look, like this, I am making two cuts, onelong cut here and one on this side. Now we havetaken garlic cloves. So see,pick up the clove like this and stick it in this gap like this, what doesour mother do, that is,my mother-in-law, garlic is stuck like this and on the otherside, green chillies are stuck like thisand then it is roasted properly.Garlic And the green chillies also get cooked along with itand the brinjal also gets cooked very well from insideand the smokyflavor which is very good willcome in the garlic also and everything will come in the green chillies tooin less time. They will get cooked simultaneously.
Now take some oil and apply the oil on thebrinjal and onboth the tomatoes. What will happen by doing this isthat when you cook it and thenremove the peel very easily. It will come off,now you take this kind of wire meshon which we cook papad etc., if it is just likethis, then take this. Even if itis not there, then also take a quick jugaad, take aniron pan with roti, on top of that, you can also use this.Cut the brinjal into two parts,cut the tomatoes into two parts androast everything on the pan, you can do it anyway,but when cooked like this on fire, it will not givethat authentic desi taste. Chokha willcome which you eat in the market orin the village in Bihar etc. It means our work will be donewithout tandoor, oven and furnace, sojust like this, we willput the brinjal and tomato here on low flame, then it will beabsolutely good on low flame. Flipping the brinjal upside down, wewill fry the brinjal properly from all the sides so that thebrinjal gets roasted well andeverything gets cooked properly. If you want, then if you have aoven or air fryer in your house, then you can cook itat 200 degrees. Keep it aside for about 15 minutes,then anyway you can cook it, so see, keepturning it from time to time andin some time, it will be roasted perfectlyand see here, the brinjal and tomatoesare almost roasted, so just add something at this stage. I am keepingthese boiled potatoes that I have takenhere on the fire for some time.
I have taken onionin the same way, I add it raw, I amadding a little ginger, I am adding finely chopped two to three greenchillies, that is, add as per taste, if it isfinely chopped, I am adding it only a little, I am going toadd chopped garlic and a lot of green coriander to taste. Add salt as per requirement andhere one big spoon ofmustard oil will give a very nice flavour.In this desi bharta, you will mix everything well. It tastesamazing.If you have never tried Litti Choka before today. If you havenot made it then trymaking it like this using my recipe,you will like it very much. You will just make theLitti quickly, then you will knead the dough once more.See,like this, now you will break balls out of it. You willbreak medium sized balls a lot. Not very big.
If you have ever seen that Littiis made in a round shape like a bati inRajasthan, just understand it in the same way.Just take a ball, put it on your hand,turn it round like this and make it a little smooth.Do it, even if there are a few cracks, there isno problem, they look good, itcan be better than that, now we will press lightly till insideand make it like a bowl,see like this by placing all the four fingers behind and thethumb in the middle like this and see this. Keeprotating it, it will become like a bowl.Okay, the upper surface should not be toothick. See, it should be in such a waythat even when cooked from inside, the food will still have a crispytaste. Now take Sattu in it approx. You willfill about one and a half to two spoons of the filling. It isimportant that it rises well and look at it with your fingers. Youwill press a little inside, that is, you willset the filling and the edges of thedough will be slowly rotated andbrought upwards in this manner.
And I will rotate it,see my palm is rotating downwards, I will keep rotating it like thisand will seal the Littiand the extra flour that you are seeing on top,either remove it oryou can press it here also, it will be a very goodLitti Golgol. It has been prepared, after one or twotimes, you will be completely hands free, with greatpleasure you will make the third litti perfect, in thesame way make the second one, there is nohard work, you will make it very easily, there will befew cracks,no tension. Leave it like this, it will be very good,so see, I have prepared all the litter in this way.In today's time of hemp plucking, there is not enough time towork so hard, to be able to make things in village style,bring coal or some furnace for that.etc., then for that I amgoing to make it in a cooker. If you cook it in a home cooker,then just put the cooker on gas andreduce the flame to low medium. I amadding only one teaspoon of oil in it,because we add ghee. So the gheegets heated very quickly and because of thelitter, it starts getting cooked very quickly. Itdoesn't get cooked from inside. First,heat the cooker properly for some three-four minutes. Themost important thing to keep in mindis the lid of the cooker. This one, youremove the whistle on top of it and the rubber attached to it,gascap rubber and whistle, we do notneed both, similarly we will cover the lid andlet the cooker heat up, preheat it[music]and see that the cooker is slightly hot. Once this is done,just take the Litti at this stage andput the Litti in the cooker like this.See this,now put the lid on, close it andreduce the flame to low andlet it cook like this for about 56 minutes on low flame. See, fiveminutes have passed, slowly remove the lidand turn the litti with a spoon in such a waythat the litti getscooked perfectly from all sides. After this,put the lid on and let it cook for 5 more minutesand then again after 5 minutes.
We will turn it upside down sothat the Litti gets completely cookedinside, so while our Litti iscooking in the cooker, I will tell you anothermethod, that is air fryer oven or airfryer, whether you have it or OTG. Soyou can make it in that also very easily or you can make it in a localtandoor or even one that has gas.Well, yes, one important thing,here I had already pre-heated the air fryer at 200 °for about 10 minutes.So that our Latti can becooked perfectly in the air fryer, it becomes very good. We willlet it fry in the air fryer at 200° for about 10 minutes and thenopen it once in the middle and check. Meaning, youunderstand like this, in about 20 minutesour absolutely perfect Litti gets cooked andready in the air fryer and after about 18 minutes, let'scheck once more.Look at the Litti on the cooker, justturn it like this. Once thelitti gets cooked well from all sides, now put the lid back on,now you do not need to open the lid at all,keep the flame on low mediumand let it get cooked well, justsee what to do after a few minutes. Hold the cooker like thisand shake it, this will automaticallyrotate the Litti inside and dryup. It's about 22 to 25 minutes. Ishook the cooker once or twice,so let's check the Litti,see it is very wonderful.
And it is verygood, you can see what a wonderful color it has comeand the spots that have come on it, it seems as if it has beenmade in fire, this is a special thing andsee this, the same village desi desiSaudi fragrance has come in our litter. If thetop and bottom of your cooker or your flame isdifferent.Then if it is less cooked, thencook a little more and it is possible that someone might cooka little quickly, then check in between, sohow will you know that the litti isperfect? Let me zoom the camera and show it to you from inside.You can see that there arecracks in the Litti, thisis an indication that the Litti has dried perfectly, itis cooked well from inside,not raw at all.
Well, yes, check out the air fryerand see this,our absolutely delicious air fryer litti sucker is ready, theonly difference is that the air fryerlittis do not have those fiery spots on them,but they also fry very well.It isfrom inside and like this, take hot litti,ghee, I have taken this, dip it in ghee like this,I amtelling you the authentic desi way, how to serve it, it isabsolutely optional if you want ghee.If you areon a diet then don't dipit. You can serve it with chokha in the same waywithout applying ghee. Andsee this, I open the litti and show it to youhot. Look at this, it is very crispy, crispyfrom inside, full and perfectly roasted.
