@Regran_ed from @ritaskitchen_ - I LOVE DHAL/DHAYL (lentils) I don’t know anyone who doesn’t like dhay/dhayl Whether it’s a baazi, cooked like a soup 🍜 or even in a samosas I love it 😍. Here’s the long overdue recipe for this mix of chana dhal and masoor dhal ⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️⤵️ Ingredients🔹 1+1/2 cup Chana dhayl/dhal (lentils) 1+1/2 cup masoor(the red one or green) dhayl/dhal (washed thoroughly until water runs clear) 1 large sliced onion 1 1/4 tsp salt add more or less to taste 1/2tsp turmeric 1tsp mixed masala curry powder Tarka/bhagar 🔹 4-5 tblspn oil-ghee 1tsp mustard seeds 5-6 red Birdseye chillies 2-3 cloves of garlic (cut into slices) 3-4 cherry tomatoes (optional) Bunch of freshly chopped coriander including stalks. 1️⃣In a deep based cooking pot add the lentils and cover with enough water about an inch above the lentils. Cover and Cook on medium heat for around 25-30mins. 2️⃣By this time the Lentils should have doubled in size, softened and the water would have started to dry up, add some more water (I added 1+1/2cup of freshly boiled water) then Add the onion and salt and continue cooking for another 5mins add the turmeric and curry powder and stalks of the coriander and continue for another 2-3 mins until you reach your desired consistency. 3️⃣I like my dhayl slightly thick so I increase the heat slightly and cook until it’s like a thick-ish gravy. 4️⃣While that’s cooking, in a small frying pan on medium heat add the oil/ghee and add the mustard seeds. Once the seeds start popping add the garlic and chillies 🌶 once the garlic starts browning you may add the tomatoes at this point or wait till the garlic is just golden then tip and pour the whole contents of the pan into the dhayl. It will sizzle (I love this part) switch the heat off and garnish with lots of fresh coriander. ☘️ 🧡bowl is tagged🧡#ritaskitchen #dhayl #dhal #chanadaal#instagramfoodie #foodpics #desifood #staplefood #pulses #instagramfoodblogger #food52 - #regrann https://www.instagram.com/p/BotOyRJBuzB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14ea5oh2op2zt
