All-in-One Dal
Ingredients
- Toor dal - 1/2 cup
- Moong dal - 1/2 cup
- Onions - 1 (chopped)
- Tomatoes - 1 (chopped)
- Green chillies - 2 (chopped)
- Ginger - about 1/2 sq.in (chopped)
- Garlic - 2 to 3 cloves (chopped)
- Peas - 1/4 cup
- Carrots - 1/2 (chopped)(Can use the frozen peas and carrots available)
- Spinach - 1 cup (chopped)
- Salt to taste
- Turmeric - 1/4 tsp.
For Seasoning
- Mustard seeds - 1/2 tsp
- Cumin seeds (jeera)- 1/2 tsp
- Asafoetida (heeng)
Method
- Boil both the dals with turmeric in a pressure cooker.
- Boil or microwave separately the peas and carrots for a few minutes
till they are cooked.
- In a non-stick pan or kadai, saute the mustard seeds, cumin seeds
and a dash of asafoetida.
- Add in the onions, ginger, garlic and green chillies and fry for
sometime.
- Add tomatoes and fry for about a minute or two.
- Add in the dals, spinach, peas and carrots. Add some water if the
mixture is too thick.
- Add salt to taste and cook for about 4-5 minutes or till the spinach
is soft and cooked. (You can also boil the spinach along with the dals,
so the cooking time will be less.).
- You can also make this dish without the spinach and it tastes equally
good. If you choose not to add spinach, then you can garnish the dish
with chopped coriander leaves (cilantro).)
Serve hot with rice or rotis. |
