Default All-in-one Dal


Ingredients

toor dal - 1/2 cup
moong dal - 1/2 cup
onions - 1 (chopped)
tomatoes - 1 (chopped)
green chillies - 2 (chopped)
ginger - about 1/2 sq.in (chopped)
garlic - 2 to 3 cloves (chopped)
peas - 1/4 cup
carrots - 1/2
(chopped)(can use the frozen peas and carrots available)
spinach - 1 cup (chopped)
salt to taste
turmeric - 1/4 tsp.
1 sp oil / ghee


Method

Boil both the dals with turmeric in a pressure cooker.

Boil or microwave separately the peas and carrots for a few minutes till they are cooked.

In a non-stick pan put ghee/oil, mustard seeds, cumin seeds and a dash of asafetida.

Add in the onions, ginger, garlic and green chilies and fry for sometime.

Add tomatoes and fry for about a minute or two.

Add cooked dals, spinach, peas and carrots.

Add some water if the mixture is too thick.

Add salt to taste and cook for about 4-5 minutes or till the spinach is soft and cooked.

(You can also boil the spinach, peas and carrots along with the dals, so the cooking time will be less.).
