- 1
In a bowl, combine 400 g chickpea flour, 1 cup onion-ginger-garlic paste, 1 tsp turmeric powder, 2 tsp red chilli powder, 1 tsp carom seeds, 1 tsp cumin seeds, and salt. Mix in water as required to create a very thick slurry.
💡 The batter should be very thick to hold the leaves together.
- 2
Lay one colocalasia leaf flat. Spread a thin layer of the chickpea batter over the entire surface of the leaf.
💡 Ensure the entire leaf is covered.
- 3
Place a second leaf on top of the first, continuing the process until you have a stack of 6-8 leaves. Fold the side edges inward and roll the stack tightly to form a single block.
💡 A single roll uses 6 leaves; a block uses 6-8 leaves.
- 4
Place the rolls in a steamer and steam for 30–40 minutes until fully cooked. Once done, allow the rolls to cool completely before slicing them into layers.
💡 Cooling is essential before cutting to maintain the layers.
🔥 steam⏱ 30–40 minutes

In a pan, heat 1½ tbsp mustard oil. Add dried red chillies, 2 tsp jakhiya seeds, and 2 tsp cumin seeds. Once they sizzle, add 1 cup sliced onions.
💡 If you don't have jakhiya seeds, you can use mustard seeds.
- 6
When onions turn pink, add 1 tsp turmeric powder, 1 tsp red chilli powder, and salt to taste. Stir in 2–3 finely chopped tomatoes and 4 chopped green chillies (optional).
💡 The tomatoes should be cooked down into a sauce.
- 7
Add the sliced steamed rolls into the masala. Add a little water to the pan, mix well, and cook for 2 minutes.
💡 The rolls are gently folded into the gravy.

Finish the dish by sprinkling with raw mango powder and chopped coriander leaves. Serve hot with phulkas or dal-rice.
💡 Raw mango powder adds a signature tang.
Tips
- The chickpea flour batter must be a very thick slurry to ensure the rolls hold their shape.
- If colocalasia leaves are unavailable, kale or spinach leaves can be used as a substitute.
- Always let the steamed rolls cool completely before slicing to reveal the beautiful layers.
- Jakhiya seeds can be replaced with mustard seeds if needed.
