YMYSELF
Splutter is to cook the mustard seeds to the point that they start to "pop"
The only thing I would correct is that add the mustard seeds and have them start "popping" and then add the cumin seeds
And yellow lentils are called Toor Dal - you find this at an Indian/Chinese/African-American store - 9/19/08
