To Pressure Cook
- 1/2 cup chana dal, also known as split garbanzo beans, soaked for 15-20 minutes
- 1/2 cup toor dal, also known as split pigeon peas lentil, soaked for 15-20 minutes
- 3 cups water
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
- salt, to taste
For Tempering
- 2 teaspoons oil, I used vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 4 garlic cloves, chopped
- 2 green chili, chopped
- 6-7 curry leaves
- 2 medium tomatoes, chopped
- 1.5 cups chopped kale
- 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice
- garam masala, pinch, to sprinkle
- salt, to taste
Instructions
1.
Pressure cook both the dals with water, turmeric
powder and dal till they are soft and cooked. I cooked on high heat for 4
whistles and then set the heat to low and cook for additional 10-12 minutes.You
may also do this on a stove top if you don't have a pressure cooker. Set aside.
2.
Heat oil in a pan on medium heat. Add cumin
seeds and let them crackle.
3.
Add chopped garlic, curry leaves and chopped
green chili. Saute till the garlic starts turning light golden in color.
4.
Next add in the chopped tomatoes and salt. Cook
for 2-3 minutes, do not over-cook the tomatoes here.
5.
Transfer the cooked dal to the pan and also add
the chopped kale.
6.
Cover the pan and cook for 5 minutes on medium
heat. You may add more water if you want a thinner consistency of dal at this
point.
7.
Remove cover from pan, add lemon juice and
sprinkle garam masala on top.
8.
Serve the kale tomato dal hot with plain rice.
