Rajasthani Dal
Rajasthani delicacies are traditionally laden with ghee but not to worry, for here is a healthier version! Chana dal helps to thicken the dal and imparts body to the dish. Add amchur as per your taste, more if you like it sour, else just a little.
Preparation time: 15 minutes. Cooking time: 20 minutes. Serves 4.
Soaking time: 2 to 3 hours.
½ cup green moong dal (split green gram)

Salt to taste
¼ tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
1 tsp finely chopped garlic (lehsun)

1 tsp ginger-green chilli paste
¼ tsp chilli powder
½ tsp coriander-cumin seed (dhania- jeera) powder
2 tsp dried mango powder (amchur)
For the garnish
1 tbsp chopped coriander (dhania)
1. Clean, wash and soak both the dals in water for 2 to 3 hours. Drain well.
2. Combine the dals, turmeric powder, 1 cup of water and salt in a pressure cook for 2 whistles.
