Here's a good dhal recipe to get your thread going:

115g/4oz split red lentils
50g/2oz small split yellow lentils
600ml/1pt water
1 tsp ginger pulp
1 tsp garlic pulp
1/4 tsp turmeric
2 fresh green chillies, chopped
1 1/2 tsp salt

I'm a bit heavy handed on the garlic and turmeric, but use the amount above and see how you go. I put the garlic, chillies and ginger in the food processor and chop (as it is easier...........I NEVER remove the chilli seeds as that's for whimps )

Wash the lentils (make sure there are no stones in there), put them in a pan with the water and all of the above and boil for about 20 mins or until they are soft. You can then give the lentil mix in the pan a bit of a mash with a potato masher if you like but I don't bother as they seem mushy enough for me.

Then you get the following:

2 tbsp veg oil
1 onion, halved and sliced
1/4 tsp mixed mustard and onion seeds*
4 dried red chillies
1 large tomato, halved and sliced


Corriander and green chillies for garnish

* I've never found onion seeds (this is just what my recipe says) so I just use mustard seeds. If you find onion seeds, it might taste even better.

Heat the oil in a frying pan, chuck in all of the above (I usually give the onions a couple of minutes on their own first as I like them a bit crispy) - and fry it for 2-5 minutes until cooked and then add it to the lentil mix along with some chopped corriander.

If making for a central dish it is nice to add some thinly sliced green chillies and maybe some unchopped corriander leaves to make it look good.

Happy munching

another stupid indian cooking question...

when i try to make the crispy potatoes (chopped potatoes guju style with oil, tumeric, chili, mustard seed, salt, pepper)...fried in some oil...

i can never get them crispy on the outside and soft and mushy on the inside. they always turn out like a completely crispy / almost burnt potato. any ideas on what i'm doing wrong?

practicing my batata puwa (sp???)...if i can't perfect it at home...i'll be here again....

Steamed flower crabs.....just steam, then fry a while to dry the exteriors and eat! You taste heaven and happiness if the crabs are fresh and sweet. :)
