Cómo preparar Slow Cooker Mixed Yellow Dal
- Rinse 1 cup of yellow split peas, 1/2 cup masoor dal (red lentils), 1/4 cup toor dal (pigeon peas), and 1/4 cup chana dal (split chickpeas).
- In a large bowl, combine the rinsed lentils and add 6 cups of water. Let it soak for at least 30 minutes.
- While lentils soak, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds and saute until they begin to crackle (about 30 seconds).
- Add 1/4 teaspoon of asafoetida (hing) and saute for 10 seconds.
- Add 1 medium onion (finely chopped) and 2 cloves garlic (minced) and saute for 2-3 minutes until softened.
- Add 1-2 green jalapenos (finely chopped) and 1 inch ginger (grated) and saute for another minute.
- Transfer the sauteed mixture to a 4-6 quart slow cooker.
- Add the soaked lentils and 4 cups of water to the slow cooker. Stir well.
- Add 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste), 1 teaspoon ground coriander, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Stir to combine.
- Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 5-7 hours, or until the lentils are very tender. Check occasionally and add more water if needed to maintain consistency.
- During the last 15 minutes of cooking, stir in 1/2 cup of tomato sauce.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed (add more salt, cayenne, or lemon juice).
- Just before serving, stir in 2 tablespoons of fresh cilantro (chopped) and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
