This is a yummy preparation that tastes so different from the usual dal cooked in a pressure cooker. We had this in a Goan restaurant . My husband liked it very much and managed to get its recipe. So here it goes...
Ingredients
- 1 cup masoor dal
- 4 cups water
- Salt to taste
- 1 tbsp oil
- 2 tbsps finely cut onion
- ½ tsp turmeric powder
- 1/3 tsp red chilli powder
- 1 tsp coriander powder
- ¼ tsp garam masala powder (optional)
Instruction
- Wash, clean the dal and soak for 3 hours. You can cook it without soaking too.
- Add 4 cups water to the soaked dal, also salt and ½ tsp oil. Keep on high flame, bring to boil and reduce the flame. Simmer for 15 minutes to let the dal get cooked.
- Heat the oil, add cut onion and sauté till transparent. Now put in the turmeric powder, red chilli powder, coriander powder and garam masala powder. Add this to the cooked dal.
- Stir well and let it simmer for 5 minutes. Serve with steamed rice or chapatis.
