green gram

Water

oil/ ghee

mustard seeds

strands curry leaves

garlic pods

green chillies slit

Medium onions

medium tomatoes

Salt

1/2 red chilli powder

garam masala

Lemon sized jaggery

Soak green gram over night.  this allows the dal to cook quick,  perfect and soft. 

step 1

Next morning,  in a cooker add the soaked dal.  add sufficient water to cook the dal.  cook for 1 whistle (depending upon the cooker 1 or 2 whistles.  as we have soaked the dal it cooks fast).  do not over cook it and make a paste.  allow it to cool.

In a vessel,  add in oil or ghee.  allow it to heat on a medium flame. 

step 3

Now add the mustard,  allow it to splutter. 

step 4

Add in garlic pods (whole or crushed-as per choice.  i added 5 whole and 5 crushed) and fry till it is golden. 

step 5

step 6

Add in finely chopped onions and fry on a high flame till done. 

step 7

Add in finely chopped tomatoes and fry till done. 

step 8

Now lower the flame,  add in salt,  red chilli powder,  turmeric powder,  garam masala and fry till the raw masala smell goes. 

step 9

While frying add little water in batches so that the masala doesn't burn and is cooked well.  (you can add the excess water which is in the cooker which was used to cook the dal). 

step 10

Once the masala are cooked,  add in the boiled green gram,  mix well.  add little water to reach curry consistency. 

step 11

Add in jaggery and boil for couple of minutes. 

step 12

Check for seasoning and adjust if necessary. 

step 13

Note:after the dish is prepared,  the curry thickness when it cools,  so while you turn off the stove make sure that there is bit gravy in it.  do not make it too watery as well. 

step 14

Serve it hot with puri,  lemon wedges and onion rings.
