I was trying to make a savory spicy Indian dip with my pressure cooker but ended up with this yummy soup instead. Sometimes the best recipes are the accidental ones :) or so I hope.
Ingredients:
3/4 c. Moong Dal
1/4 c. Massor Dal
1/2 onion
2 clove garlic
1/2 inch ginger grated
1/2 mushrooms chopped
1/3 c. peas
1/3 c. carrots
1-2 dried red chili peppers
4.5 c. water
1/4 c. cilantro
1 tomato
spice mixture:
turmeric
cumin
coriander
cardamon
dill
salt
pepper
I sauted the onions, mushrooms, garlic and ginger w. a little veg. oil and 2 tablespoons of the spice mixture above in the pressure cooker. Then rinsed the two different Dals until the water ran clear. Put the Dals into the pressure cooker, added the chili peppers, peas, carrots and water. Heated up the pressure cooker with the lid on til the pressure was obtained (the first whistle) and cooked at full pressure for 8 min. After I quick released the pressure, I threw the chopped tomato and cilantro and kept the heat on low for another 10 min. Add some Naan and you've got dinner in under 20 min.
