1️⃣ Toor Dal (washed) – 1 cup / 200 g
2️⃣ Tomato – 5, chopped
3️⃣ Onion – 2, chopped
4️⃣ Green Chilli – 2 slit lengthwise
5️⃣ Turmeric Powder – ¼ tsp
6️⃣ Salt – 1 tsp
7️⃣ Water – 3 cups
➤ Pressure cook the dal for 1 whistle on high flame

Step 2 – Preparing the Flavorful Masala

Ingredients
1️⃣ Oil – 2 tbsp
2️⃣ Mustard Seeds – 1 tsp
3️⃣ Fenugreek Seeds (Methi) – ¼ tsp

➤ Add a little water while frying the masalas to avoid burning the spices
➤ Salt - 1 tsp (as per taste)

Step 3 – Mix Dal, Masala & Vegetables Together

Transfer the fried masala and all the vegetables mentioned below into the cooked toor dal. If you don’t have some of these vegetables, you can simply use whatever vegetables are available at home (can add potato, brinjal etc). Adding drumstick gives a special authentic flavour, and lady’s finger (bhindi) helps in giving a nice thickness to the gravy.

7️⃣ Tamarind Pulp – Small lemon-sized ball (soak in ½ cup water, strain, and use the pulp)
8️⃣ Hot Water – 2 cups or can add more water as needed for desired consistency
➤ Pressure cook for 1 whistle on high flame

Step 4 – Tempering (Tadka)

Ingredients
1️⃣ Oil – 2 tsp
2️⃣ Mustard Seeds – 1 tsp
3️⃣ Dry Red Chilli – 2
4️⃣ Curry Leaves – 2 sprigs

Please Note
➤ I have not added extra asafoetida (hing) as it is already present in the sambar powder
➤ Check salt and adjust to taste.
➤ You can increase or reduce red chilli powder based on how spicy you like it.
➤ Water can be increased or decreased depending on the required thickness.
➤ Use only hot water while adjusting consistency
