Parsi Daal

My culinary adventures through parsi cuisine continues!!..While browsing through Meera's Space, i found this simple and easy parsi daal, immediately i tried out this delicious daal with a combination of toor dhal and masoor dhal together instead of making out simply with toor dhal...Meera prepared her parsi daal with garlic flakes while i went for shallots coz my H wont like that much garlic flakes in dhals...I prepared this dhal with shallots & with less garlic flakes when compared with Meera's version as i cant imagine daal without garlic, this dish tastes splendid with simple rice topped with ghee and fried papads, also prefect with microwave jeera aloo..i should definitely say a big thanks to Meera for this delicious and healthy dhal..



1/4cup Toor dhal
1/4cup Masoor dal
1/4tsp Asafoetida powder
1/2tsp Turmeric powder
Salt

Tempering:
1tbsp Ghee
1/2tsp Cumin seeds
1no Red chillies
6nos Shallots
2tbsp Coriander leaves (chopped)

Pressure cook the both dhals together with asafoetida powder and turmeric powder...add enough water to the cooked dhal and salt, bring to boil..In a small pan, heat the ghee, add the cumin seeds, red chillies, shallots ..fry the shallots until they get fried, add this tempered ghee to the daal, put off the stove and add the chopped coriander leaves..

Serve hot with plain rice!!
