Daal Mash Recipe (Urad Dal / White Lentil Curry)

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup Daal Mash (white lentils), rinsed
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tomatoes, finely chopped
  • 2-3 green chilies, slit
  • 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons oil or ghee
  • Fresh coriander leaves for garnish
  • Lemon wedges (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Daal Mash:
    • In a pot, add the rinsed Daal Mash and 3 cups of water. Bring it to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the lentils are soft and creamy.
    • If using a pressure cooker, cook for 3-4 whistles.
    • Set aside after draining any excess water.
  2. Prepare the Tadka (Tempering):
    • Heat oil or ghee in a pan over medium heat.
    • Add cumin seeds and let them crackle for a few seconds.
    • Add chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.
    • Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and cook for a minute until fragrant.
  3. Create the Masala:
    • Add the chopped tomatoes and green chilies. Cook until the tomatoes break down and the oil starts to separate.
    • Add turmeric, red chili powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, and salt. Stir well and let the spices cook for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Combine the Lentils:
    • Add the cooked Daal Mash to the masala, and mix thoroughly.
    • Let it simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Add water if necessary to adjust consistency.
  5. Finish with Garam Masala:
    • Stir in garam masala and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  6. Serve:
    • Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves.
    • Serve hot with naan, roti, or steamed rice. Optionally, squeeze some lemon juice on top for added flavor.
