Dalitoy - Mangalorean Style Dal Tadka

Dalithoy is simple, healthy & slurpilicious soup/curry made with split yellow lentils.

Topped with ghee, it is one of the few dishes that is indulgent and healthy at the same time.

Lentils are loaded with proteins and also the tempering of assorted condiments in hot oil or ghee does a decent job of unlocking fabulous aroma and the nutrition of the spice.

  • Cook 1 cup of toor dal in pressure cooker with a pinch of turmeric, 3-4 green chillies and 1 inch of finely chopped ginger for 3 whistles.
  • In a Vessel, heat the cooked dal with salt. When it starts boiling, take off the heat. Garnish with finely cut coriander leaves.
  • In a pan, heat 2 tbsp coconut oil/ghee. Add 1/2 tbsp mustard. When mustard starts popping, add 4-5 curry leaves, 1 red chillies and 1 pinch of asafoetida.
  • Pour this seasoning over the cooked dal and close the lid.
  • Serve with hot rice
