Kumror chokka or yellow pumpkin curry with black chickpeas is the best to pair with luchis. This is an ultimate combination from a bong's kitchen. Kumror chokka is a no onion no garlic vegetarian dish. Hence luchi ar kumror chokka is the preferred dish on the oshtomi of Durga puja ( eighth day of navaratri). This comfortable meal can be served either as breakfast, lunch or dinner. It is also prepared on various occasions like wedding days, birthdays, first rice ceremony or any other special days.
Soak the black chickpeas overnight and next day discard the water and pressure cook with little salt upto three whistles.
Heat oil in a pan and add dry red chilli, bay leaf and Bengali five spice.
Next add a pinch of asafoetida into the oil.
Now add potatoes and cook under slow flame covering with a lid for few minutes.
Next add pumpkin pieces and boiled chickpeas and cook under low flame covering with a lid. Stir in between.
Add salt and Turmeric and mix well.
Next add cumin powder, coriander powder, sugar, green chilli and chopped tomatoes.
Cook for sometime until the tomatoes are soft.
Now add 1/2 cup of water and allow to boil.
When vegetables are almost cooked and water is dried up, switch off the gas.
In the meantime, take flour salt and 3 tablespoon in a bowl and add required water to make a smooth dough.
Take marble size dough and apply oil on it and roll to circles of diameter 2 to 3 inches.
Heat oil in a wok and gently dro the circles into oil and luchi begin to puff.
