Peels contain many valuable nutrients. This sabzi is made out of peels of fresh pea pods, which we generally throw after shelling the pea pods. Here below is its recipe:

red chili powder optional
1 dry red chili
1 tsp of tomato paste or 1 chopped tomato
1/2 tsp of turmeric powder
1/2 tsp of garam masala
salt to taste

To prepare peels
1. Peel the peels, you must be wondering, is it possible to peel the peel? Yes of course..peas peels has two layers. Upper layer is very soft just like any other sabzi, and the second layer is of white color, very hard to chew and transparent. Break the corner of the peel and carefully drag the white portion towards yourself. Discard this white.
3. After that cut the soft green peels into small pieces.
4. Wash. and peel the potato and cut into any shape.
Making Sabzi

Dhokla chaat is very tasty and at the same time very easy to make. It can be prepared with leftover dhokla too. Though here I have made fresh besan dhokla in microwave. It tastes just like dahi bada, but it is more healthier than that. Here below is the whole process of besan dhokla and its chaat:

Ingredients
For Dhokla
3/4 cup of besan(rice cooker cup)
1/4 cup of semolina
salt to taste
1/2 tsp of turmeric powder
1 tsp of sugar
1tsp of ginger paste
1/2 cup of sour curd
1/2 tsp of lime juice
1/2 tsp of Eno
1/4 cup of water
2 tbsp of oil
pinch of asafetida
2 slit or chopped green chilies
few curry leaves
1 tsp of mustard seeds
For chaat
1 cup of curd
1/2 tsp of roasted cumin powder
1 tsp of sugar
black salt to taste
1/4 tsp of garam masala
1/4 tso of red chili powder
4 tbsp of tamarind chutney
2 tbsp of green chutney
handful of boiled black chole/channe
basen namkeen sev
Method
1. Take the besan and semolina in a bowl with salt, turmeric, sugar and mix well.
2. Add curd and water to it and make smooth batter of it. Keep it aside for rest so that semolina can absorb water.
3. Next add ginger and mix.
4.Heat the oil in a pan for tempering. First put slit green chilies and fry it little bit and take out. Next add mustard seeds. Let it splutter till it stops itself. Now add curry patta and pinch of heeng. When its done, remove from fire and pour it on the dhokla batter.

5. Grease the microwave proof bowl. Bowl should be with lid.
6. Now add Eno and mix it very gently/light hand.
7. After that, pour it into the greased bowl and cover it with lid as shown in picture.
8. Now place it in microwave .
9. Microwave it for 5 minutes.
10. Soft dhokla is ready.
11. Let it cool completely and cut into desired shapes.
Preparing Curd
12. Take curd in bowl. Filter it though a sieve. Now add black salt, red chili powder, garam masala and roasted cumin powder.
Preparing Plate
13. Place few pieces of dhokla on a plate. Cover it with spicy curd.
14. Put kale/black chole, imli/tamarind chutney and any green chutney over it.
15. It can be garnished with radish julienne , mint or cilantro and sev.
16. Chatpati dhokla chaat is ready to serve

Leftover roti chaat is a very chatpati dish just like dahi vada chaat. Though it seems like papdi chaat but it is more closer to dahi vada. As in papdi chaat we keep little bit crunchiness of papdi but in stale roti chaat we soak completely dried roti into buttermilk till it gets soft. It is very easy and simple to make. Here below is the whole process how we can make it out of a baasi roti:

Ingredients
2 lefover dried roti
2 cups of whisked curd
salt to taste
1 tsp of sugar
1 boiled and diced potato
handful of boiled black channa
1/4 tsp of garam masala
1/4 tsp of red chili powder
1/4 tsp of roasted cumin powder
3 tbsp of sweet n sour tamarind chutney
Method
1. Dry the leftover roti in freeze by keeping open in a plate till it dries completely or in sun or in microwave. Earlier it was used to dry in sun.
2. Now crush or break it roughly.

3. Take 2 cups of whisked curd. Add 1 tsp of sugar and salt and mix.

4. Add the roughly broken pieces of roti into this curd. And soak it for 2-3 hrs or till completely soaked/soft.
5. When it is completely soft, add diced potato, black channe, tamarind chutney, and all the other spices earlier written in ingredients list, to it and mix.
6. Transfer it into a plate and can be garnished with red chili powder, black cumin powder and cilantro.
7. Chatpati leftover roti chaat is ready to serve.
Tips
Use the tamarind chutney and other spices according to your taste.
