Masoor in coconut milk

I learnt this from my mother during my stay over the summer with her. She must have been surprised that i was asking her how to cook something for a change. Since i have hardly stayed with her ever since high school, the opportunities to learn from her have been few. I love the way she prepares this

Ingredients:
1. 1 cup whole masoor (black) soaked for at least 2 hours
2. 2 cups coconut milk
3. 2 cups water
4. 1 tomato
5. 1 tsp chopped garlic
6. 3 green chillies slit
7. 4 curry leaves
8. 2 tsp oil
9. 1 tsp cumin seeds
10. Salt to taste
11. 1 onion finely chopped

Method:
1. Boil the masoor with tomatoes, water and salt
2. Heat the oil, add the cumin seeds , onions, slit green chillies and garlic and fry until golden. Thereafter add the coconut milk and stir. Add the boiled masoor and stir and let it boil for around 5 to 10 minutes. Add water if it is too thick. Garnish with chopped corriander leaves.

Goals: Everyone has so many variations for making Pizza dough. I never realized the debate of Biga vs Poolish  dough making. Before we get into all the details, I set some goals.
