Tidali Dal

Heat a pressure cooker, add split green gram, split Bengal gram, split pigeon pea, onion, tomato, curry leaves, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, salt, green chillies and 6 cups water and mix well. Cover the cooker with a lid and cook under pressure till 4-5 whistles are released. Open the lid of the cooker once the pressure reduces completely and mix well. For the tempering, heat ghee in a deep pan, add garlic and cumin seeds and sauté till the garlic turns golden brown. Add the cooked gram mixture, mix well and cook for a minute. Take the pan off the heat. Transfer the dal into a serving bowl, garnish with coriander leaves and serve hot with steamed rice.
