About Besan Gatte Ki Sabzi Recipe: I am a big fan of gram flour or besan recipes. I love it in any form and Rajasthani style besan gatte ki sabzi is one of my favorite curries.
The term “gatte” refers to cooked and spiced gram flour dumplings, which are then dunked into spicy curd gravy. This soft, spicy, rich, and delicious curry is a perfect dish with hot chapatis or paranthas.

A Few Final Thoughts
These thoughts are also available in the recipe card so that you can print them:
- Serving: Serve it hot with naan, roti, or rice.
- Additions: You may add cumin seeds, a little bit of baking soda, and mint leaves to the masala.
- Subtractions: If you want smooth cottage cheese-like dumplings, don’t add onion in the gram flour batter.
- Caution: Cook gram flour batter in a non-stick pan because the water in flour dries up quickly and then it sticks to the surface of the pan.
