Prepare the Yogurt Gravy Base
Cook the Gravy
Finish the Sabzi
Make the Omelettes
Serve
To make the sabzi vegan, use a plant-based yogurt (like almond or cashew yogurt) and omit the omelette. Ensure the yogurt is unsweetened.
For a satvik or Jain version of the sabzi, skip the onion and ginger-garlic paste. Increase the amount of asafoetida and you can add a tomato puree for body.
For a richer, restaurant-style gravy, add 2 tablespoons of cashew paste along with the onion or stir in 2 tablespoons of fresh cream at the end.
Increase the amount of green chilies and red chili powder, or add a pinch of black pepper to the gravy for extra heat.
Combining protein from both besan (chickpea flour) and eggs, this dish is excellent for muscle repair, growth, and keeping you full and satisfied for longer.
Besan is a great source of dietary fiber, which aids in digestion, helps maintain stable blood sugar levels, and promotes a healthy gut microbiome.
The use of curd (yogurt) as the base for the gravy provides beneficial probiotics that support digestive health and boost immunity.
The complex carbohydrates from chickpea flour provide a steady release of energy, unlike simple carbs, preventing energy spikes and crashes.
Yogurt curdles due to high heat or sudden temperature changes. To prevent this, always use room temperature yogurt, whisk it well with besan before adding, and pour it into the pan on the lowest possible heat while stirring constantly until it comes to a gentle simmer.
Yes, it's a balanced and nutritious meal. The gatte are made from protein-rich besan (chickpea flour), and the eggs add high-quality protein. The yogurt in the gravy is a good source of probiotics. It's a wholesome dish when eaten in moderation.
A single serving of Gatte ki Sabzi with Omelette contains approximately 450-550 calories, depending on the amount of oil and the type of curd used. This is an estimate and can vary.
Absolutely! You can boil, cool, and slice the gatte a day in advance. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This makes the final cooking process much quicker.
Hard gatte are usually the result of a very tight dough or over-boiling. Ensure your dough is firm but pliable, not overly dry. A small amount of oil or ghee in the dough (known as 'moyan') helps keep them soft. Boil them just until they float to the surface.
This dish pairs wonderfully with traditional Indian breads like roti, chapati, or paratha. It also goes well with steamed basmati rice or jeera rice.
