How to make Khatti Daal - Indian Lentil Soup Recipe

[biscorbit]

I used some lamb shank in this soup and it was amazing.

what no tomatoes?

Try with two tomatoes in it it'll taste best. Letting out a secret from Hyderabadi Khatti dall. ;-)

Chop tomatoes and put with other spices and pressure cook it.

I love lentil, but I don't make any lentil dishes. :(

@waqaszubairy

You can cook it in a regular pot, it just takes longer.

what can you add if you don't have curry leaves and tamarind paste...is there any other option...pls let me know.Thankyou

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Curry leaves have a unique flavor so they are hard to substitute... you can leave them out. Tamarind provides the sour flavor so you could substitute lime or lemon juice. The type of sourness is a bit different but do-able.

[AMIJOSHI]

what u have add at last green paste for sour taste,daal look amazing yammyyyyyyyyyyy

[kastnmagic]

Where are you finding these ingredients in the US? When we lived in Kuwait we had a wonderful abundance of spices, including those from India... I miss all those markets with those amazing spices! Where in the world can we find these here?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Most US cities have Indian grocery stores. You will find all of the spices at pretty reasonable prices.

[sweetycutee]

[ShowMeTheCurry]

This was a recipe submitted by a viewer and we made it exactly how she told us. We just loved it and saw no reason to change anything!

Enjoy!

[songlvr1]

What about Hing? Hing gives it an amazing taste.

[mayaluvsmusic]

i just bought some peas and I'm sooo gonna try this!

[Dev0808]

thanks I learned how to be ''curry'' now

[3gyupsal]

That looks awesome. I just had my first experience with dal yesterday. I'm going to try some more. I neither have a pressure cooker, nor do I have any curry leaves, what I do have is some Garam Massala, and the guy at the place where I had the dal (fry) said I could use that what do you think?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

You don't have to have a pressure cooker to make daal. Be sure you soak it first and you may have to cook it a little longer. Curry leaves have a wonderful flavor, but if you cannot find them, it's ok to leave them out,

[ShowMeTheCurry]

And to answer your question on Garam Masala, we are sure it will taste great.

[Iwillbethereforyou]

I made this daal before yesterday. To be honets, I didn't even know we had that many spices at home. My mom was really surprised that I cooked it. Thanks so much !

[discorecords]

Do you ever fry coriander in ghee and then add it to daal?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

Yes, you can do that. Putting the coriander in ghee or oil prevents it from changing colors. Be sure to switch off the flame before adding the coriander and after a quick stir, immediately add it into the daal.

[discorecords]

Thanks. I am making some right now thanks to your video. It smells sooooo good! :)

[punith08]

thanks

[indusdolphin]

Thanks

[bestpassionfruit]

hi..it was great making the daal but after i added tamrind paste, the dal lost its color and became dark...wat can i do to avoid it..i even tried adding more turmeric to retain the color.....?

[ShowMeTheCurry]

You can use any daal you like. This particular daal gives it a light feel and is easy for digestion.

[poppysmum]

Hi there. I don't have a pressure cooker, how long should I cook it, covered in a conventional saucepan?

[praveensoora]

nice dish...can we make it with toor dal too?
