I call this double dhal because it has two different types of pulses and both sweet and regular potatoes. The main change was to include the potatoes because I wanted a whole meal in a pot. I also trebled the recipe so I could freeze it off in batches. I have a fairly big pressure and this lot barely fit so if you have a small one, maybe halve the recipe. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups channa dal |
1 cup green lentil |
6 cups boiling water |
2 tablespoons minced ginger |
10 garlic cloves, minced |
8 onions, chopped |
1 1/2 teaspoons turmeric |
3 teaspoons cumin |
2 teaspoons garam masala |
2 teaspoons chili powder |
1 tablespoon sultana |
salt |
pepper |
650 g potatoes, chopped into small chunks |
500 g sweet potatoes, chopped into big chunks |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
Directions:
1. Rinse chana dal and lentils until water runs clear.
2. Heat olive oil in pressure cooker and soften onions and garlic.
3. Add all other ingredients apart from garam masala, salt and sultanas to pressure cooker.
4. Lid and bring up to pressure.
5. Reduce heat and cook for 10 minutes.
6. Release pressure and open lid carefully.
7. Add sultanas, salt and garam masala.
8. Check for seasoning and add chili flakes and pepper to taste.
9. Check doneness of potatoes and lentils and simmer until soft.
