Instructions: How to Make Dal Fry

• In a pressure cooker, add soaked toor dal, 2 cups water, turmeric powder, and a pinch of salt. Pressure cook for 3-4 whistles until the dal becomes soft.
• Once pressure releases, mash the dal lightly with a ladle until smooth. Set aside.
• Heat ghee in a deep pan or kadhai. Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds; allow them to splutter.
• Add curry leaves and green chili. Sauté for a few seconds.
• Add finely chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.
• Stir in ginger-garlic paste and cook until the raw aroma disappears.
• Add chopped tomatoes and cook until they turn soft and oil starts separating.
• Add red chili powder, garam masala, and salt. Mix well.
• Pour the cooked dal into the pan. Add a little water (about 1/4 cup) to adjust the consistency.
• Simmer for 5–7 minutes on low heat, stirring occasionally, until flavors blend well. Turn off the heat and add lemon juice. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve hot.
