Ingredients
0.5 cup Split yellow moong beans 1.5 cup Water, tap 3 tsp Ginger root, grated0.25 tsp Turmeric, ground 0.25 tsp Mustard seed, yellow 0.25 tsp Cumin seed 0.25 tsp Garam Masala (by BIGGIRL2082010) Pinch asafoetida
Dal:
Clean and then soak the moong dal for about 20 minutes
Rinse the dal, and add to a pot with the ginger and turmeric.
Bring to a boil, and then stir, cover and reduce to low to cook for 20 - 25 minutes.
After the dal is cooked, add the garam masala and salt and then mash with a spoon and put on simmer while making the tarka (seasoning).
Tarka:
In a small, separate pan (I use a ladle), heat the oil and then add the mustard seeds to pop. After they have popped, add the cumin seeds and asafoetida and then add to the dal. The cumin and asafoetida will burn quickly, do not leave them on the heat for too long.
Stir, remove from heat and serve.
Serving Size: Makes two servings.
