Dabba Gosht Recipe is a fancier chicken version of traditional Bohra Dabba Gosht. This is one pot quick pie that is very easy to make and delicious. The detailed video tutorial is also present in the post.

On surface, this pie appears just another type of Alfredo pasta. But dig through it and you’ll find cashew instead of flour and yogurt instead of milk. Not to mention coconut milk and the layer of fried eggs on top. This pie is a lavish treat.

Dabba, literally means a metal tiffin box. This dish was traditionally set in a dabba and loads of smoking hot oil were poured over the eggs to cook it. The excess oil could be removed with a spoon. To avoid excess oil, you can bake the eggs. I added a little smoking hot oil and allowed the pan to cook on slow heat with the lid covered. In this way, eggs are cooked by steam in the pot.

This is again one of those recipes, I’m very confident about. This turns out very good with little effort.

To keep the recipe simple, I’ve added whipped eggs in the pan only and allowed it to cook in the steam. If you wish to have a fancier look, bake the eggs in the oven.

Tips:

  • To bake in a dish: Transfer the prepared pasta to an oven-proof dish. Pour whipped eggs over the pasta. Then drizzle smoking hot oil over it. Finally, bake it in a preheated oven at 350 F for 5-7 minutes or until the eggs are just set.
  • You can add or subtract veggies of your choice like baby corn, mushrooms, and broccoli.
  • If you don’t have cashew, you may use almond powder.
  • Plain flour can also be used instead of cashew powder, but the taste will be compromised. You can switch coconut milk powder for fresh coconut milk or coconut cream too. Just cut off extra water in the recipe.
