Instructions: How to Make Lentil Soup

• Pressure Cook Dal

  Wash the lentils thoroughly and pressure cook them with water, salt, and turmeric for 3-4 whistles (or simmer in a pot for 20-25 mins) until completely soft and mushy.

• Prepare the Tempering (Tadka)

  In a separate pan, heat ghee or oil and add cumin seeds and hing. Sauté the onions, ginger-garlic paste, and tomatoes until soft and fragrant.

• Simmer and Blend

  Pour the cooked dal into the tempering pan, add more water to adjust consistency, and whisk or blend for a smooth texture. Simmer for 5 minutes, garnish with coriander and lemon juice, and serve hot.
