How To Cook?


1

Rinse the moong dal with water twice and soak it in clean water for at least an hour, preferably overnight. afterward, rub the dal between your hands for 3 minutes. discard this water and wash the dal again with fresh water. keep the dal soaked in water and set it aside.

2

Heat a pan and add 3 tablespoons of ghee. once the ghee is hot, add sliced onions and cook them over medium heat until they start to brown. reduce the heat and let them evenly brown. remove the fried onions along with the oil to a plate and set them aside.

3

Place the soaked dal along with 6 cups of water in a pot and bring it to a boil. add the fried onions, turmeric, green chillies, ginger, salt, and butter. boil the dal covered until it becomes tender. alternatively, you can also cook the dal in a pressure cooker. once the dal is tender, lightly mash it with the back of a spoon to thicken the dal. if the dal is too thick, add more water to thin it out. keep the dal simmering.

4

In a separate pan, heat desi ghee and add dry red chillies. once the chillies start changing color, add cloves. stir until the cloves pop, then immediately add this tempering to the boiling dal. stir the dal and cook for another 5 minutes. check for salt, adjust if needed, and squeeze a wedge of lemon. serve it hot with roti or rice.
