Kerala sadya parippu, moong dal made luxurious with coconut and ghee. Humble dal, done properly, beats most fancy curries. Serve with steamed rice and a spoon of ghee.

Prep 14 min Cook 33 min Serves 3 Easy

Ingredients

Ginger Garlic Paste1 tbsp
Garam Masala1/2 tsp
Saltto taste
Onion1, finely chopped
Tomato2, chopped
Green Chili1-2, slit
Cumin Seeds1 tsp
Ghee3 tbsp
Turmeric Powder1/2 tsp
Grated Coconut1 cup
Yellow Moong Dal1 cup, rinsed

Optional extras

Fresh Cilantro2 tbsp, chopped

Instructions

1
Rinse the yellow moong dal in several changes of water till it runs clear, then pressure-cook with turmeric, salt and plenty of water until completely soft.
2
Whisk the cooked dal till smooth-ish and keep it loose — it thickens as it sits.
3
Warm the ghee, drop in cumin and mustard seeds if using, and let them pop before the onions go in.
4
Fry tomato with the grated coconut until it collapses into the fat, then pour the whole thing over the simmering dal.
5
Taste for salt and sourness; a squeeze of lemon at the end makes the dal taste of itself, only louder.

Chef's tip

Don't crowd the pan; steam is the enemy of the browning that builds flavour.
