Baati chokha you mean.

Daal baati - Mostly rajasthani cuisine

Litti chokha - aloo, baigan and tomato chokhas mostly - Primarily Bihari cuisine

 

Edit: Litti in Bihar is filled with Sattu.

That's the way to go. I am not a fan of Dal Baati, my mom loves it. I did have the dish multiple times in Rajasthan, and the only time I quite literally gobbled it with passion was in a place called "Traditional Khaana" in Udaipur. Quite possibly in the top 5 food places of all time in my life (and I travel a lot due to work). 

 

Chokha is a staple in our house since dad is technically a Bihari. Aloo, arvi, baigan, tomato and other varieties of chokhas. 

 

When I tried Baba Ganoush for the 1st time, realised that it's nothing but baigan chokha made with Olive oil. :P

Gas tandoor.

 

placed on gas stove and closes from top as well.

Will send you a pic if you want, very good and efficient.

 

Oh I didn't read you don't want on a stove.

No, electric tandoori don't work well.

Ive seen your gas tandoor. Its dope but not allowed to cook non veg in our kitchen:P

Thanks for the heads up on electric tandoor. Will try to look for those mini barbecues with smokeless coal, though cleaning will be a bitch.

And I have been vegetarian since one month now. Am not sure if I am committed to it if presented with a non vegeterian dish in a social setting, but so far I have been able to curb my temptations for cooking/ordering meat.

Have to say that looking at this and being tempted was one of the hardest temptations to avoid acting on.
