- Wash the moog dal and allow it to soak in a bowl of water for 30 minutes.
- Pour the soaked moog dal on to a pot with 4 cups of water. Add salt, turmeric powder, sliced onions and garlic. Boil the dal until a thick gravy forms. This should take around 30-40 minutes.
- When the dal has almost boiled, heat oil and ghee/butter on a separate pan. Add kalo jeera (black cumin seeds) and bay leaves and fry for a few minutes. Do not fry too long as the oil might get dark.
- Pour the oil, kalo jeera (black cumin seeds) and bay leaves mixture to the boiled dal. Stir the mixture well in the dal and put the lid on with low heat for approximately 2-3 minutes.
- Garnish by sprinkling some green chillies.
Serving suggestion
