Ingredients
- 1 cup Black Urad Dal (Split)
- 1 tablespoon Rajma (Large Kidney Beans)
- 4 Tomatoes
- 1 inch Ginger
- 1 tablespoon Ghee
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds (Jeera)
- 1 teaspoon Kashmiri dry red chillies
- 1 tablespoon Coriander Powder (Dhania)
- 1/2 teaspoon Garam masala powder
Instructions
1
To begin making Maa Ki Dal formula, first wash the dal and rajma well about 2-3 times and then soak them together in aqua for at least 8 hours or overnight.The longer you soak the better it is for the texture of the dal.
2
Traditionally, the dals are soaked for 24 hours, changing aqua every 8 hours.When you are ready to prepare the dal, after sufficient soaking time, take a heavy bottom pot (or a slow cooker) and bring 5 cups of aqua with a dash of table salt, to bring to a low-boil in it.mix in the pre soaked dal and rajma to it and let it low-boil till it cooks and turns a little soft.
3
This could take anywhere between 2-3 hours as the dal gets it flavours from the slow crafting process.
4
However, if you are in a hurry you can use the pressure cooker to hasten the process.Next, mix in the tomato and ginger to the dal.
5
Once the dal is cooked, mash the dal and tomatoes a little bit.
6
Take care not to make it mushy, but just achieve a thick consistency.
7
prepare the dal for more 3 to 4 mins.In a small pot, mildly hot some ghee, mix in the cumin seeds and sauté till they turn slightly brown.
8
mix in dehydrated red chillies, coriander ground mix, garam masala ground mix and bake on a low mildly hot for 1 minute taking care not to overcook them.transfer this tempering over the the dal and bring it to a bring to a low-boil.
9
low-boil it for another 10-15 mins and enjoy scalding.Maa Ki Dal can be served with Baingan Ka Bharta, Boondi Raita and Phulka for a comforting Punjabi meal.
