Yesterday I tried this dal sukka from Mallika badrinath’s Kurma varieties book.It was very nice..We all liked it..My hubby had this with chapathi , My doter savored this with dosa and me with curd rice..This dal tasted best for everything.If u’ve got bored by making the same Veg / Aloo kurmas , I would say this dal sukka is a nice replacement.Healthy and Easy too..Try this and let me know ..
Ingredients:
1 cup – 250ml
- Moong dal – 1/4 cup
- Big onion – 2nos (chopped finely)
- Ginger ,Garlic – A few pieces or u can use G &G paste of 1 tsp
- Green chilly – 1 no (long one) (adjust)
- Jeera /cumin seeds – 1/4 tsp
- Red chilly powder –1/2 tsp
- Coriander powder – 1 tsp
- Turmeric powder – 1/4 tsp
- Salt & water – As needed
- Oil – 1 tbsp
- Coriander leaves – to garnish
- Lemon Juice – A few drops
Method :
- Grind ginger , garlic and green chilly to a paste and set aside.
- Take a broad kadai ( i did it in the cooker base directly).Add a tbsp of oil and add the paste to it.saute for sometime and then add the onion julienne’s.
- Saute till it turns transparent.
- Then add all the powders and mix well.Do not add water ..All the masala get cooked in the oil itself.A nice aroma wafts around.
- Now add the moong dal and fry for a minute.
- Add the water , required salt and close the cooker .
- Cook till the moong dal gets cooked.I kept for one whistle.
- Now open the cooker and mash the dal a little with ladle.
- Roast the jeera in little oil and add it to the cooked dal.
- Add few drops of lime juice and mix well.
- Garnish with coriander leaves.
Serve with chapathi , curd rice. dosa/idly and ENJOY !!
