 Categories: Indian, Pakistani

           - (red split lentils);
           - rinsed in several
           - changes of water
      1 ts Kashmiri red chili powder
    1/2 ts Turmeric powder
      1 ts Salt; or to taste

  A fool-proof, starter masoor dal (split red lentils) recipe with a
  simple tadka of fried onions.
  
  Tadka (optional):
  
  Once the dal is ready, heat the vegetable oil in a small frying pan.
  Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the sliced onion, and fry on
  medium heat until it is an even golden brown, about 7 to 10 minutes.
  
  Remove from heat, and pour the fried onion with the oil over the dal.
  Place in a serving bowl, and serve alongside white rice.
  
  Add the lentils, and 2 cups of water to a heavy-bottomed pot. Cover
  with a tight-fitting lid, and bring to a quick boil over medium-high
  heat.
  
  Remove lid, lower to a simmer, and stir in Kashmiri red chili powder,
  turmeric powder, and salt. Let the dal simmer, uncovered, over
  medium-low to medium heat until it has absorbed the water, about 5 to
  7 minutes. In the meantime, heat 2 additional cups of water in a
  kettle.
  
  Use a wooden spoon to push the dal against the pot to give it a creamy
  consistency.
  
  Pour the hot cups of water into the pot, and stir well. Let the dal
  simmer for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the
  consistency you want. Check for salt, and adjust as needed.
