Hari Moong Dal Recipe Instructions:

 

Step 1
First of all, we will wash the moong dal two or three times with clean water and soak it in water for half an hour. Finely chop the tomatoes, ginger, green chilies, and coriander leaves. After half an hour, drain all the water from the soaked dal through a sieve. Put 3 cups of water in the cooker, and keep it on medium heat to cook the dal.
Step 2
It takes three to four whistles to boil the dal in the cooker. After four whistles, we will let the pressure of the cooker release, open the lid, and see if the moong dal is not boiled properly, then boil it with one or two whistles. Two whistles, and after coming today, we will open the lid of the pressure cooker and check the dal by pressing it with our fingers. If our dal is crushed properly, then it means that it has been boiled.
Step 3
Now we will place a nonstick deep pan over the flame and add 2 teaspoons of desi ghee to it. When it ghee is heated well, then put cumin seeds in it when the cumin starts to crackle. Then we will put coriander powder in it and stir it slowly, letting the flame slow down. Simultaneously add salt and red chili powder, chopped green chilies, and ginger, while stirring slowly. After 10 seconds, add chopped tomatoes inside and soften them.
Step 4
It takes 2 to 3 minutes for the tomatoes to soften properly. When the tomatoes become soft, put the boiled moong dal inside them with water, keep stirring the dal slowly, and bring it to a good boil. If you find less water in the dal, then add a little boiled water and boil the lentils well on medium heat for 5 minutes. When the dal boils well, turn off the flame after 5 minutes and mix garam masala inside the dal, add some chopped leaves of green coriander and mix, eat a little dal in a spoon and see if there is less spice or salt. If yes, mix according to the test and squeeze half a lemon inside the dal.
Step 5
Now take out the dal in a serving bowl and prepare the tempering of red chilies.
Put a nonstick pan on the flame and put a teaspoon of red Kashmiri chili powder inside it, stir it well, and pour it over the dal, garnishing it with some chopped green coriander leaves.

Now our Hari Moong Dal is ready. Serve it hot; you can eat it with roti, paratha, or jeera rice.
