Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup (140 g) green mung beans (soaked 2 hours to a day)
  • 2 cups (500 ml) water

Tempering:

  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) mustard seeds
  • pinch of asofetida
  • 1/2 teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) coriander powder
  • 5 curry leaves
  • 5-6 cloves (5 cloves) of garlic chopped
  • 1 dry red chili pepper
  • 1/4 cup (40 g) onions chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon (0.25 teaspoon) black pepper or to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) turmeric powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon (0.5 teaspoon) salt or to taste

Instructions

  • Rinse the soaked mung beans and pressure cook with 2 cups of water for 2 whistles. Wait for the pressure to go down by itself before opening the pressure cooker.
  • For the tempering, heat the oil in a medium pan on medium low heat until hot.
  • Add the mustard seeds. Once they start to sputter, add in the asofetida and curry leaves.
  • Add in broken dry red chili, garlic, coriander powder and turmeric and mix well.
  • Cook on medium low heat until the garlic starts to turn golden brown.
  • Add in the onions and cook for another 2 minutes.
  • Add the cooked beans to the tempering or the tempering to the beans pan and mix well.
  • Add salt and black pepper to taste and cook the beans soup for 3-4 minutes so that the soup can pick up the flavor of the tempering.
  • Serve hot with rotis or rice, garnished with fresh cilantro leaves!

    I didn’t burn the garlic because I don’t like burnt garlic, but with everything else this was a very yummy dal!

      You can cook it over low heat until lightly brown. that will be a nice toasted flavor and not bitter burn

    If using an Instant Pot instead of Pressure cooker, about how many minutes would you set it for?
