A quick one pot daal when you are running short of time. Nothing fancy; but a simple, soulful, comfort food.

Here I am using 3 types of daal in the dish. Moong daal , chilka moong and toor daal.  We cook the daal in a pressure cooker with some tempering as base. This daal makes a tasty side for your roti as well as rice . There is nothing more to write over this humble recipe. Try this recipe today for a power packed meal.
 
Steps:

Wash and soak Moong daal ,Chilka moong ,Toor daal for about 15 minutes.

In a pressure cooker, heat oil and ghee on low flame. Add cumin seeds, curry leaves, green chilli, red chilli and ginger. Fry for a minute. Fry onions till transparent and add tomatoes.

Once the tomatoes turn soft add all dry powders. Add salt. Add daal, 3-4 cups of water and bring to a boil. Close the lid and pressure cook until 4 whistles on low-med flame.

Once the pressure subsides, finish the daal with fresh coriander leaves.
