The famous Dal Bati of Chhatarpur district, it has now become the identity of Chhatarpur

Although Dal Bati is a well-known dish in Rajasthan, in recent years Dal Bati has also come to symbolise Chhatarpur. The JCB store, which serves the greatest Dal Bati and is located in the city’s centre at Panna Naka, is well-known for both its original name and delicious food. At the store of JCB, or Jain Chole Bhature Wale, there is a mob of people eating dal bati.

Bundelkhand’s Chhatarpur is well known for its cuisine and culture, whether it be Khurchan, Chaat, or JCB Ki Dal Bati.

Chickpeas are added to dal bati.

Vicky Jain, who owns the JCB restaurant, claims that Chole Bhature is his specialty, but for the past six years, he has also been making Dal Bati, which is cooked every Sunday. Districts also bring Tikamgarh sagar for tasting.

Using daal (lentils) and baati, daal baati is an Indian dish (hard wheat rolls).  It is well-liked in Madhya Pradesh, particularly in the Braj, Nimar, and Malwa regions, in Rajasthan, in the Khandesh and Vidarbha regions of Maharashtra, in Gujarat, and in Uttar Pradesh.

Tuvaar dal, chana daal (made by removing the skin from split chickpeas), mung dal, moth dal, or urad dal are all used to make daal. The pulses or lentils are soaked in water for a few hours before being cooked all at once. In a frying pan, warm up a tiny amount of vegetable oil before adding the rai-jeera seasoning (mustard and cumin seeds). Green chilli, garlic, asafoetida, red chilli, turmeric, coriander, and ginger are then added, along with other spices. In some areas, dal may also be available in a sweet and sour variation. The cooked daal is then added and finished.

Aata, or hard bread also known as baati, is produced from wheat flour. Dahi (yoghurt), water, and a little salt are used to knead wheat flour. This dough is formed into tennis ball-sized spherical balls and baked in an earthen or conventional oven that has been preheated. After being coated with ghee and cooked till it turns golden brown, the baati is served with rice, daal, rava laddoo, pudina chutney, kairi (raw mango) chutney, garlic chutney, green salad with lots of onion, and fresh buttermilk.
