2 handfuls of Methi leaves (Only the leaves without the tender stem)
3 tomatoes
1 big onion
Pinch of Turmeric powder
One/Two green chilli, sliced
10 whole black pepper.
One small dollop of butter
Small piece of Ginger (if you like Ginger)
Methods/steps
Mix all above and put them in an Indian cooker (pressure cooker). Wait until the dal is cooked ( 4 whistles ).
Heat two spoons of Ghee, and fry
* half small spoon of mustard seeds * half small spoon of Zheera (cumin) * two sliced garlic cloves * two red chillis * 6 to 8 curry leaves
This takes less than 30 seconds to fry. Once garlic turns golden, add
one small tomato finely chopped. Add salt, chilli powder to your taste.
Add "Coriander or Dhaniya powder". I would recommend this.
Add the
above cooked Dal Mix to this fry, and let it simmer. You can add water
if you like it to be gravyish.
Add two drops of lemon juice for added
taste.
