Comment préparer Masoor Dal

Rinse 1 cup of red lentils (masoor dal) thoroughly under cold water.
In a large pot, combine the rinsed lentils and 4 cups of water. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, a gray scum will form on the surface. Skim this off carefully with a spoon.
Add 1 inch grated ginger and 1 teaspoon turmeric powder to the pot.
Reduce heat to low, partially cover the pot, and simmer gently for 45-50 minutes, or until the lentils are completely soft and a thick puree begins to form at the bottom.
Stir the dal several times during the last 15 minutes of cooking to prevent sticking.
While the dal simmers, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil (or ghee) in a small skillet over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add a pinch of asafoetida (hing).
Immediately add 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds and 2-3 small dried red chilies (broken into pieces).
Sauté for about 30 seconds, or until the spices are fragrant and the chilies have darkened slightly.
Pour the fragrant oil and spice mixture into the cooked dal. Add salt to taste.
Stir well to combine and cook for another minute.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro (optional), and enjoy!
