Darbari Dal (Zero Oil Recipe)

I came across this healthy dal recipe in Tarla Dalal ji's website. It is very easy to make and tastes best when served hot with rice or roti! 

INGREDIENTS:

• Rajma - 1/4 cup, soaked over-night
• Toor Dal - 1/4 cup, soaked for 15 mins
• Masoor Dal - 1/4 cup
• Bottle guard - 1/2 cup, cut into cubes
• Red pumpkin - 1/2 cup, cut into cubes
• Salt - to taste
• Turmeric powder - 1/2 Tsp
• Tomatoes - 1/2 cup, finely chopped
• Coriander leaves - 1/4 cup, finely chopped
• Coriander powder - 1 Tsp
• Garam masala - 1/2 Tsp
• Chilli powder - 1/2 Tsp
• Green chillis - 2, slit length-wise
• Lemon juice - 2 Tsp

METHOD:

1. In a pressure cooker, add all the dal, bottle guard, pumpkin, turmeric powder along with 1 and 1/2 cups of water and mix well. Pressure cook for 4 whistles
2. Open the lid after the steam has escaped and mash the dal. Add tomatoes, coriander leaves, dhania powder, garam masala, chilli powder, green chillis, salt, lemon juice and 1/2 a cup of water (if the dal is too thick). Mix well and cook on a medium flame for 4-5 minutes
3. Serve hot with rice or roti
