Dal fry #2
Dal fry is the best accompaniment for jeera rice or roti. It is the most popular dish of Punjab. Dal fry can be prepared with other dals like moong dal(split green gram) ,masoor dal(split red lentil) too. To make the dal rich I have added few cashewnuts . At times I even add grated cheese which makes the dish creamy,rich and tasty. And kids will love it too.

Tur dal(split pigeon peas)-1 cup
Ghee/oil – 3-4 tbsp
Cashew nuts – 10-12 pieces

Garam masala powder(mixed spices)- ½ tsp
Dhania ( coriander powder) – ½ tsp
Amchoor (dried mango powder)- 1/8 tsp
Red chilli powder- ½ tsp
