Ingredients:

Tuvar/Arhar Dal	-	1/2 Cup
Tomato	-	1 Medium size finely chopped
Green Chilli	-	1 cut into half
Turmeric powder	-	1/2 Teaspoon
Salt	-	to taste
For Tadka
Ghee	-	2 Tablespoon
Whole Red Chilli	-	1
Cumin Seed	-	1 Tablespoon
Garlic	-	5-6 Cloves finely chopped

Method:

In a pressure cook add Tuvar/Arhar Dal, tomato, green chilli, turmeric powder, salt, sufficient water and cook it. Once the pressure of pressure cooker is released open the lid and keep it aside. In a tadka pan or in a small pan, add ghee. When ghee is hot add cumin seeds and garlic. Wait till the raw smell of garlic is gone and garlic turns little red. Now break the whole red chilli in two and add it into the ghee. Transfer the tadka into the dal. Bring the dal onto the stove and boil the daal a little so that the tadka gets mixed well. If you feel that dal is too thick then add little water and bring it to a boil. Serve hot with rice or roti.

Note:

This is one of the favorite dal of my family and friends. The volume of the cup which I used was -- 1/2 Cup = 120 ML.
