Tawa Kaleji is a traditional, highly favored Pakistani street food recipe. Recently, I cooked a delicious dish on a tawa, enhancing it with spices and herbs. I used the homemade kaleji masala that I shared in a previous post. After a long break,

I’ve started writing my blog again. I had been busy with personal engagements over the last few months, but now I'm free and eager to dive back into blog writing—a passion of mine since my teenage years. InshaAllah, I will do my best to share some interesting recipes I hope you will love.

My Latest Tawa Kaleji Video:

I've been working on updating my content across my YouTube channel, Facebook, and blog. So, without further ado, let me introduce you to a delicious recipe: Dhaba-style Tawa Kaleji. This winter, I love enjoying this tasty dish with chapatis and naan.

WHAT IS TAWA KALEJI?

Beef /Mutton liver or tawa kaleji masala is a traditional dish, popular street food in Lahore, that is cooked on a cast-iron tawa combined with other offal. It’s the first dish usually prepared in every Pakistani home on Eid al-Adha or the Festival of Sacrifice.

It’s a quick and easy stir-fry that tastes delicious, especially when prepared with fresh meat. The same dish is more popularly prepared with chicken liver, too.

CAN I USE A DIFFERENT TYPE OF MASALA IF I DON'T HAVE THE SPECIFIC KALEJI MASALA?

Of course! In this recipe, kaleji masala is not necessary. You can substitute it with individual regular spice powders. The essential ingredients for kaleji masala include red chili powder, salt, turmeric, coriander, black pepper, and kasuri methi. You can use these with the same herbs and tomato chilies as in the original recipe."

Recipe Notes:

To achieve perfect and tender kaleji (liver), avoid adding salt at the beginning of the cooking process.
Cook the liver for no more than 15 to 20 minutes, as overcooking can make it tough instead of soft and tender.
Refrain from adding water while cooking the liver; if it becomes necessary to add some, do so sparingly, as too much water can prevent the liver from achieving the desired tenderness.
To eliminate any unpleasant smell and residual blood from the liver, soak it in a mixture of salt and vinegar water for 15 minutes before cooking.
In this recipe, I used my homemade kaleji powder. You can either follow my recipe exactly or customize it with your preferred spices, including any store-bought spice powders available in your area.

Drumstick Dal | Spilt Tuvur Dal || How to make drumstick dal recipe with step-by-step photos

Drumstick Dal is a wholesome and rich tuvur dal cooked along with drumstick and subtle spices and tadka to give it a great taste. All it takes is 20 minutes to make, and it makes a perfect weeknight dinner along with hot steamed rice.

The Drumstick Dal Recipe is a lip-smacking dish packed with flavors from onion, tomatoes, and green chilies, finished with a delicious ghee tadka of curry leaves and cumin.

Adding drumsticks to your diet gives you a plethora of health benefits. Drumsticks regulate blood sugar levels, improve digestive health, help develop stronger bones, purify the blood, relieve respiratory disorders, and boost immunity.

This drumstick dal recipe is the way my mother makes it. I love the flavor and taste of drumsticks in the dal; rather than plain dal, whenever I go to the market, I always make sure to buy drumsticks so that I can add them to the dal

For the best result, follow my detailed step-by-step photo instructions and tips

Tips for making drumstick dal?

I added the drumsticks right at the beginning of cooking. If you have very tender drumsticks, you can add them to the onion masala. However, the drumsticks I had were not very tender, so they didn’t cook properly.

Sometimes, if you pressure cook drumsticks, they can become overcooked and lose their shape. When this happens, they mix into the dal, making it less visually appealing, and the drumstick seeds can pop in your mouth while eating. So, it's essential to use common sense when cooking any recipe with drumsticks.

I used arhar dal (also known as tuvar dal or pigeon pea) with the drumsticks, as their flavors complement each other very well. However, you can experiment with this recipe using moong or chana dal instead.

Cooking dal for 25 minutes under pressure is typically sufficient. As you can see, I used a simple pot, so it took more than an hour for the dal to become tender.

An important step in cooking arhar dal is to soak it in warm water for at least 30 minutes beforehand. Since I soaked the dal, the cooking time was reduced. If you skip this step, you will need to increase the cooking time, and I recommend not adding the drumsticks at the beginning if you don’t soak the dal.

Another crucial step in preparing pigeon pea lentils is to roast them in a pan for 5 minutes. This is important because arhar dal can cause gas and bloating, and roasting it helps to reduce these gassy effects.

Lastly, avoid adding salt while cooking the dal, as this can prevent it from cooking soft and tender.

Serve Drumstick Dal alongside rice and a bowl of curd for a wholesome weeknight dinner or a comforting lunch.
