Dhokali — done properly.
Rajwadi Dhokali is a royal-style Kathiawadi dish of soft gram-flour dumplings (dhokli) in a rich, spiced tomato gravy made creamy with buttermilk and cream. The dhokli are tender and soak up the tangy, gently hot curry around them.
Eat it with bajra rotla or rotli, or on its own as a hearty lunch.

Lazy Sundays used to mean ordering takeaway. Now I just heat this with some bhaat on the side. Tastes properly Gujarati without the wait.
I forgot dhokali existed until I saw this. Tasted it and got emotional — it is the kind of dish nobody outside Gujarat knows about and somehow Thakar nailed it.
The dhokali are soft and the gram-flour base is comforting. Took me back to Charotar Sundays. A little more dhokali would be great.
Used to take two hours. Now I heat this and relax. Tastes about ninety percent of fresh, which is brilliant.
Heat and eat, the way mum would, in minutes. Pick your way.

Retort sealing is what lets a cooked dish keep without a single preservative. That part is new. What goes inside it is the food this kitchen has made since 1967.
Not a replacement for home cooking. The next best thing when life gets busy.
Per serve, based on a single pouch at ₹135 serving 2.
Correct. Our retort pouch is sterilized at 121°C and sealed under nitrogen — the same technology the Indian army and ISRO use. Store at room temperature for 12 months. Refrigerate only after opening.
12 months from the manufacture date printed on the back of the pouch. Once opened, finish within 24 hours (refrigerated).
We won't say identical — fresh is always fresh. But the retort process locks in flavour and texture at the peak of cooking, so most customers can't tell the difference once it's heated through. For the closest result, heat it in a pan rather than the microwave.
