Instructions

1. Rinse and Soak Dal

   Rinse the toor dal under running water until clear, then soak in water for about 15 minutes to reduce cooking time.

   Time: PT5M

2. Cook Dal

   Drain the soaked dal, add it to the pressure cooker with 2 cups water, 1/4 tsp turmeric and 1/2 tsp salt. Close the lid and cook on medium heat for 2 whistles (about 10 minutes).

   Time: PT12M

   Temperature: Medium heat

3. Prepare Rice

   While the dal cooks, combine 1 cup rinsed basmati rice with 2 cups water in a saucepan, add a pinch of salt, bring to boil, then reduce to low heat, cover and simmer for 12 minutes until water is absorbed.

   Time: PT15M

   Temperature: Medium heat

4. Make Tempering (Tadka)

   In a small frying pan, heat 1 tbsp ghee over medium heat. Add 1/2 tsp cumin seeds; when they sizzle, add minced garlic, grated ginger, slit green chili, and chopped onion. Sauté until onion turns golden brown (about 3 minutes). Add chopped tomato and cook another 2 minutes until softened.

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: Medium heat

5. Combine Dal and Tempering

   Release pressure from the cooker, open and stir the cooked dal. Pour the hot tempering into the dal, mix well, and adjust salt if needed. Let it simmer together for 2 minutes to meld flavors.

   Temperature: Medium heat

6. Plate and Garnish
