Recipe

Wash and soak 1 cup of peas dal (split pigeon peas) in water for 30 minutes. Drain the water and set aside.

In a pressure cooker, add the soaked peas dal, 3 cups of water, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder, and salt to taste. Cook for 3-4 whistles or until the dal is soft and cooked.

In a pan, heat 2 tablespoons of ghee or oil. Add 1 teaspoon cumin seeds and let them crackle.

Add 1 finely chopped onion and sauté until golden brown.

Add 1 teaspoon ginger-garlic paste and sauté for a minute.

Add 2 finely chopped tomatoes and cook until they turn soft and mushy.

Add 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder, and 1/4 teaspoon garam masala. Cook for 2-3 minutes.

Add the cooked peas dal to the pan and mix well. Adjust the consistency by adding water if required. Simmer for 5-7 minutes.

In a separate small pan, heat 1 tablespoon of ghee or oil. Add 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds, 2-3 dry red chilies, and a pinch of asafoetida. Fry for a few seconds.

Pour this tempering (tadka) over the cooked matar dal and garnish with chopped coriander leaves.
