Daal has always been an Indian household common dish with roti and rice. I decided to cook a dry menu, so I paired it with a wet consistency of a daal to balance our dinner meals!
Ingredients:
- Tor Daal 1:2 water
- Turmeric powder
- Salt
- 2 Dried red Chilli
- 2 large geen chilies (slit)
- Jeera
- Asafoetida
- Cooking Oil
- Chopped tomatoes
- Onions
- Coriander and Red Chilli powder
- Garam Masala
- Ginger garlic paste or homemade ginger paste
- Coriander or Mint Leaves
Procedure:
- In a pressure cooker, put the washed tor daal, a tsp of turmeric powder, water, and salt
- Put the flame on medium-high and wait for a 2-3 whistle.
- In a separate pan, put oil and fry jeera, asafoetida and dried chilies, and green chili. Saute for 30 sec.
- Put chopped onions and saute till they turned slightly brown.
- Add ginger paste and saute for 10 sec
- Put the chopped tomatoes and add a little salt, turmeric powder, coriander, and red chili powder. Saute this till the tomatoes turn soft
- Now put the cooked daal in the pan and stir occasionally.
- Once boiled, Add garam masala. You can add water if you want it at a big amount.
- Done once the Daal reached to desired consistency. (Tip: the longer you cook it, the better taste it will be)
- Finish with coriander or mint leaves.
