👨‍🍳 作り方

1. 1

   Rinse the rice thoroughly and cook it according to package directions or your preferred method until fluffy. Keep warm.

   💡 プロのコツ: For authentic Nepali rice, use slightly less water than usual for a firmer texture.
2. 2

   Rinse the toor dal and pressure cook it with 3 cups of water and a pinch of turmeric until very soft. Mash lightly.

3. 3

   In a separate pan, heat ghee or oil. Add cumin seeds and mustard seeds. Let them splutter.

4. 4

   Add chopped onions and sauté until golden brown. Add ginger-garlic paste and sauté for another minute.

5. 5

   Add chopped tomatoes and green chilies. Cook until tomatoes soften and oil starts to separate.

6. 6

   Add turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt. If using meat, add it now and brown it. Cook for 5-7 minutes.

7. 7

   Add the mixed vegetables and sauté for a few minutes. Add about 1 cup of water, cover, and cook until vegetables are tender.

8. 8

   Pour the cooked dal into the vegetable curry. Add garam masala and lemon juice. Simmer for another 5 minutes.

9. 9

   To serve, arrange a portion of rice on a plate. Ladle the dal and vegetable tarkari (and meat, if using) alongside the rice. Serve with pickled chilies or achar.

   💡 プロのコツ: The Thakali set is often served on a large metal plate (thali) with small bowls for different components.
