Home Recipe

250 grams whole black lentils (urad dal)
70 grams kidney beans (rajma)
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 large tomatoes, pureed
70 grams cream
30 gramss ghee (clarified butter)
15 grams ginger garlic paste
12 green chilies, finely chopped (adjust to taste)
6 grams cumin seeds
6 grams red chili powder (adjust to taste)
5 grams turmeric powder
6 grams garam masala
15 grams Salt
Fresh coriander leaves for garnish

Instructions:

**1. Soak Lentils:**

1. Rinse and soak whole black lentils and kidney beans in water for at least 6 hours or overnight.

**2. Cook Lentils:**

1. In a pressure cooker, cook soaked lentils and kidney beans with enough water until they are soft and well-cooked. It may take around 20-30 minutes.

**3. Prepare Tempering:**

1. In a separate pan, heat ghee. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.

2. Add chopped onions and sauté until they become golden brown.

3. Add ginger garlic paste and green chilies. Sauté for a minute until the raw smell disappears.

**4. Add Tomatoes and Spices:**

1. Add pureed tomatoes to the pan. Cook until the ghee separates from the tomatoes.

2. Add red chili powder, turmeric powder, and garam masala. Mix well and cook for a couple of minutes.

**5. Combine Cooked Lentils:**

1. Add the cooked lentils and kidney beans to the pan with the prepared tempering. Mix well.

2. Simmer the dal on low heat for about 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally. This slow cooking enhances the flavors and gives it a creamy texture.

**6. Finish with Cream:**

1. Add cream to the dal and mix well. Cook for an additional 1015 minutes.

**7. Garnish and Serve:**

1. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.

2. Dal Bukhara is ready to be served. Serve it hot with naan, rice, or any Indian bread of your choice.

Note:

You can adjust the quantity of cream and spices according to your taste preference.
Some recipes include the use of charcoal for a smoky flavor. If you like, you can give it a smoky flavor by placing a piece of hot charcoal in a small bowl inside the dal, drizzling some ghee over it, and covering it for a few minutes.

Enjoy the rich and flavorful Dal Bukhara!
