Dal-Palak


Dal-Palak:

It’s great to be in blogging marathon, everyday my blog is getting a new post in this week. My recipes include variation due to seeing other fellow bloggers way, the food is done. Thanks to Srivalli towards this idea. And comments passed by other fellow bloggers motivate each other.

This is my 3rd day in blogging marathon and as you already know I have opted to cook “Seven Days of Delicious Dals”. Today’s Dal is Toor Dal/Tuvaram Paruppu / Togari Bele  / Kandi Pappu.

Ingredients:
  • Toor Dal – 2 cups
  • Palak – 1 bunch
  • Mustard Seeds – 1 tsp
  • Turmeric Powder – 1 tsp
  • Coriander Powder – 1 tbsp
  • Green Chillies – 3 to 4 (chopped)
  • Cooking Oil – 2 to 3 tbsp (I use Dhara – Groundnut oil)
  • Curry Leaves – few
  • Cilantro - few
  • Salt to taste
  • Water to cook dal

Method:
  1. Cook dal for 4 to 5 whistles (depending on the dal)
  2. Wash and chop palak into small pieces
  3. In a kadai heat little oil and add mustard seeds wait till it splutters and add curry leaves
  4. Add salt and once it dissolves, add palak fry them nicely in oil till it is cooked
  5. Add turmeric powder, coriander powder, chopped green chillies and mix them well with palak
  6. Finally add cooked toor dhal to palak and leave it for 5 to 10 minutes until it boils
  7. Serve it hot with Puris.

Yummy, this is my breakfast for today along with Puris..
