Como fazer Indian Style Lentils
- Rinse 1 cup of red lentils (masoor dal) thoroughly under cold water.
- In a large pot, combine the rinsed lentils with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the lentils are tender but not mushy.
- While the lentils are simmering, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and 1 medium chopped onion. Sauté for 15-20 minutes, until the onion is golden brown and caramelized.
- In a medium bowl, combine the cooked lentils with the sautéed onion and garlic mixture. Stir in 1 teaspoon of ground turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cumin, 1/4 teaspoon of ground chili powder (adjust to your spice preference), 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Transfer the lentil mixture to a slow cooker. Add 1 cup of water (or vegetable broth for extra flavor). Cook on low for 2-3 hours, or until the flavors have melded beautifully. (Alternatively, you can continue cooking on the stovetop on low heat for the same time frame.)
- Garnish with fresh cilantro (optional) before serving. Enjoy your delicious and authentic Indian-style lentils with rice or naan bread!
