Step 1

Masoor Dal is one the most commonly consumed Indian delicacy that goes well with rice and chapati. Here’s an easy recipe of Masoor Dal, which will give this usual dal a nice innovative twist. To prepare this dish quickly and save time, soak the dal for an hour, then wash and rinse properly. Drain the excess water.

Step 2

Take a pressure cooker and add dal with two cups of water and a pinch of salt. Pressure cook it till turns soft and mushy and keep aside. Take another pan or pot, heat oil or ghee. Fry cumin seeds till they become brown, similarly, add onions and fry for a while.

Step 3

Stir and fry for a few seconds, before adding green chilies and stir again. Add the tomatoes and fry till they become soft. To make this delicacy more flavoursome add some finely chopped garlic, this will add a piquant aroma to this dish, fry till the mix turns golden.

Step 4

Now add the cooked dal from the cooker and pour about two cups of water. Add salt, stir and keep on low flame for about 10 minutes till it settles down nicely and blends well with all the ingredients. If you want to add some tangy flavour to this dal you can squeeze some lime juice, you can add some amchoor powder as well to make it more spiced up.
