MAKE TOOR DAL

MAKE TOOR DAL



There are various kinds of Dal (lentils), come with their own unique flavor. This is all the more enhanced by our own special ways of preparing them . Some like to spice it up and make it all hot and fiery while some like it bland and soupy. Well, I try to make them in as different ways as possible- sometimes spicy and at other times bland so
what you think
lets make things better


You need some in Ingredients :-

1 cup toor dal
1/2 onion, finely chopped
2 pods of garlic, finely chopped
1/2 inch piece of ginger, finely chopped
1 bay leaf
1tsp cumin seeds
1 whole red chilli
2 pods of cardamom
1 inch cinammon stick
2 cloves
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1/2 tsp cumin powder
2 tsp fresh and finely chopped coriander leaves
1 tblsp cooking oil
salt as taste


Method for this -

Wash the dal and boil in1 and 1/2 glasses of water with salt, a pinch of sugar and the garlic.

Add the turmeric and cumin powders.

In another pan, heat the oil. Add the cumin seeds, whole red chilli, bay leaf, cinamon, clove and cardamom. Whe the flavor emanates, add the onion and ginger and fry till the onions are translucent (take care not to burn).

Remove the pan from fire and add it to the dal.

Simmer the dal for a minute and add the coriander.

and then Serve hot with rice. nice meal
