I got this recipe from my friend Sunitha - one of those days when i got bored eating dal made the same old way by me. Its supposed to be a north indian recipe passed on to her by her friend.
Ingredients:
1/2 glass masoor dal
2 bowls water
a sprig of curry leaves
1 tsp chopped garlic
1 tsp chopped ginger
2 pinches of aesofetida
1/2 onion chopped (US size)
1 tomato
1/2 tsp ginger
2 green chillies chopped fine
chopped corriander leaves for garnishing
3 tsp oil
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
1. Pressure cook the dal with water, salt , turmeric, 1 tsp oil and tomatoes for about 10 minutes (3-4 whistles)
2. Heat oil, when hot add mustard seeds and let them splutter, add the curry leaves, onions, ginger, garlic and green chillies. Stir until onions are golden. Add aesofetida and thereafter add the boiled dal. Garnish with coriander leaves
Results: I liked it but my husband seems to prefer the traditional bohora way of making masoor dal.
