👨‍🍳 作り方

1. 1

   Rinse the rice thoroughly and cook it with water until fluffy. Keep warm.

   💡 プロのコツ: Using a rice cooker can simplify the process.
2. 2

   Rinse the dal and pressure cook it with water, turmeric powder, and a pinch of salt until very soft. Mash the dal to a smooth consistency.

   💡 プロのコツ: Soaking the dal for 30 minutes before cooking can reduce cooking time.
3. 3

   In a separate pan, heat ghee or oil. Add cumin seeds and mustard seeds. Once they splutter, add chopped ginger, garlic, and green chilies. Sauté for a minute.

   💡 プロのコツ: Ensure the oil is hot enough for the spices to bloom properly.
4. 4

   Add chopped tomatoes and cook until softened. Then add the mashed dal to this tempering (tarka).

   💡 プロのコツ: This tempering adds a rich aroma and flavor to the lentil soup.
5. 5

   Add more water if needed to reach desired consistency for the dal. Simmer for 5-10 minutes. Season with salt and garnish with coriander leaves.

   💡 プロのコツ: Adjust consistency by adding more hot water if the dal becomes too thick.
6. 6

   For the tarkari (vegetable curry), heat oil in a pan. Add sliced onions and sauté until translucent.

   💡 プロのコツ: Using a variety of vegetables adds different textures and flavors.
7. 7

   Add the chopped assorted vegetables, turmeric powder, red chili powder, garam masala, and salt. Stir well to coat the vegetables.

   💡 プロのコツ: You can add a splash of water to help the vegetables cook and prevent sticking.
8. 8

   Cover and cook the vegetables until tender, stirring occasionally. If using spinach, add it in the last few minutes of cooking.

   💡 プロのコツ: The cooking time for vegetables will vary depending on their type and size.
9. 9

   Serve the hot dal, bhat, and tarkari together on a plate. Optionally, include a small portion of achar (pickle) or a fresh salad.

   💡 プロのコツ: This meal is traditionally eaten with the hands.
