Table of Content

This recipe proves the fact that dal can be super tasty without being spicy. A mixture of three dals is perked up with tomatoes, onions and other ingredients, which give it a fabulous flavour.

Since spicy meals trigger and aggravate Acidity , this Mixed Dal uses very little green chillies for spice.

However, the chillies are not missed at all, because ingredients like ginger, coriander and cumin seeds impart more than enough flavour to delight the palate!

pressure cooking dals

 

    1. In a pressure cooker put 2 tbsp yellow moong dal (split yellow gram). Yellow moong dal offers a mild, slightly sweet flavor that blends well with other lentils and spices in a mixed dal. It also cooks quickly and maintains a soft, almost creamy texture, adding a pleasant contrast to other dals that might be slightly chewier.  
    2. Add 1 tbsp masoor dal (split red lentil)Masoor dal contributes a distinct, slightly earthy flavor profile to the overall mixed dal. 1 cup of cooked Masoor dal gives 19 grams of protein. Being rich in Phosphorus it works with Calcium to build our bones.
    3. Add 1 tbsp urad dal (split black lentils). 1 cup of cooked urad dal gives 69.30% of your daily requirement  of folic acid. The folic acid in urad dal helps your body to produce and maintain new cells, especially red blood cells. It is also high in fibre and good for heart, good for lowering cholesterol and good for diabetes.
    4. Add 1/2 tsp turmeric powder (haldi).
    5. Add salt to taste. We added xx tsp salt.
    6. Add 1 cup of water.
    7. Pressure cook for 2 whistles.

making mixed dal

 

    1. Heat 1 tsp oil in a deep non-stick pan. Use Coconut oil  instead of processed seed oils like soyabean oil, canola, sunflower oil, corn oil and other omega-6 rich oils should be used in very low amounts

    3. Saute for a few seconds.
    4. Add 1/4 cup chopped onionsOnions are often sauteed at the beginning of cooking the dal to create a base for the tarka or chaunk. This caramelized onion base adds a rich, savory depth of flavor to the entire dish.
    5. Add 1/4 tsp finely chopped green chilliesGreen chillies add a touch of heat and spice to the dal, which cuts through the richness of the lentils and other ingredients.
    6. Add 1 tsp chopped ginger (adrak)Ginger offers a warm, aromatic quality that complements the earthy tones of lentils and other vegetables often used in mixed dal.

Yes without any estimate of how many grams is one serving, it makes no sense how much is 132 calories. Is it one cup, is it one spoon, what is that estimate though? Is it one kilo of dal, at least mention how much uncooked dal you started with. Why do you even post these articles where I cannot use it in real life.
