Rajasthani catering in Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar
Dal baati churma, gatte ki sabzi, ker sangri and festive Rajasthani thalis for parties, festivals and themed events across Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar.
What does Rajasthani catering include?
Rajasthani catering centres on dal baati churma: baked wheat dumplings with five-lentil dal and sweet churma. Menus add gatte ki sabzi, ker sangri, kadhi, bajra roti, garlic chutney and sweets such as ghevar or malpua. A full Rajasthani thali is a popular theme for festivals and parties.
When is Rajasthani food a good fit?
Rajasthani food fits festivals, themed parties, Marwari community events and winter gatherings. Ahmedabad has a large Rajasthani community, so dal baati is familiar to many guests. Its ghee-rich dishes are filling, which suits evening events and celebrations more than quick office lunches.
Can Rajasthani food be made Jain?
Many Rajasthani dishes, such as dal, gatte and ker sangri, can be made without onion and garlic, and Jain versions avoid root vegetables too. Vendors prepare Jain dishes separately. Share the number of Jain guests so the quote includes a properly sized Jain portion.

Frequently asked questions
Can vendors make dal baati live at an event?
Yes. Some vendors bake baatis on site and serve them with dal, ghee and churma at a live counter, which is a highlight of Rajasthani-themed events. A live baati counter needs space and an oven or tandoor. Vendors include the set-up in their quote.
What sweets are served in a Rajasthani menu?
Popular Rajasthani sweets include churma (served with dal baati), ghevar, especially around Teej and Raksha Bandhan, malpua, moong dal halwa and mawa kachori. Vendors suggest sweets that suit the season and quote them as part of the dessert course. Eggless and Jain versions are available.
Is Rajasthani food spicy?
Some Rajasthani dishes, such as garlic chutney and certain curries, are spicy, while dal baati churma itself is mild and rich. Vendors balance a menu for a mixed group and can keep spice moderate. Mention your preferred spice level in the requirement call.
Can I combine Rajasthani and Gujarati food?
Yes. Combined menus are common in Ahmedabad: for example, a Gujarati farsan course followed by a Rajasthani main course with dal baati. Pick both cuisines on the Inquire page, and vendors will propose a combined menu with a sensible number of dishes per course.
How far ahead should I book Rajasthani catering?
At least one week, like every KhanePe order. For festival dates or themed events with live baati counters, two to three weeks gives more choice, because fewer vendors specialise in Rajasthani food than in Gujarati or Punjabi. Live baati counters need extra planning time.
