Masoor Dal

I'm going to blog a bunch of basic recipes, just to have a comprehensive record. So, masoor dal.

Soak 1.5 cups and boil it well.

In a separate pan, pour oil, and let it get hot.
Add jeera (which should splutter)
Add 1/2 an onion - diced.
Add some ginger - finely chopped.
Add a green chili, (whole with cuts)
Fry for a long time.
Add tomato & saute till halfway soft.
Add the mixture to the boiled dal.
Let it all heat together for a bit.
Add dhaniya patta.
Voila !
