Instructions

1. Heat the ghee in a pan. Add the mustard seeds, cumin seeds and dried red chilli. When they start to splutter, add the asafoetida.
2. Add the onion and green chillies and sauté until the onion turns golden.
3. Add the ginger garlic paste and sauté for about a minute, until the raw smell is gone.
4. Add the tomato and salt and sauté over medium heat until the tomato is soft.
5. Stir in the red chilli powder, garam masala and turmeric and sauté for 2 minutes, until the spices smell fragrant and the oil starts to separate from the masala.
6. Add the mashed dal and mix well. Add a little more hot water if needed to reach the desired consistency.
7. Cook until the dal bubbles well. Crush the kasuri methi in your palms, add it, taste and add more salt if needed. Garnish with coriander leaves.
8. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice once the dal has cooled slightly, and serve with rice, roti or naan.
