Instructions
- Wash and strain the dal nicely before use. In a pressure cooker, add dal, chopped spinach, choped tomatoes, ginger garlic paste, turmeric powder, salt and enough water to cook dal. Pressure cook till the dal gets cooked properly.
- This may take 5-6 whistles or 10 - 15 mins approx. Once the dal is done, stir it well with a ladle so that the dal gets dissolved nicely. Transfer it into a bowl and keep aside.
- For the tempering, take a pan and heat ghee or oil whatever you prefer. Add hing. mustard seeds and allow it to splutter.
- Now add finely chopped garlic generously with little red chili powder. The chili powder will give a nice red color to the oil. Fry everything till the garlic turns golden in color.
- Pour the tempering in the center of the dal and close the lid immediately so that the flavor gets infused well inside.
- If you want you can garnish it more with some chopped coriander, it's personal choice. I didn't do that because i didn't wanted the coriander flavor to over powder the flavor of spinach.
- Serve hot with tandoori rotis with ghee and zeera rice!
