With the weather beginning to turn we may be starting to grave some heartier, cosy dishes. This Slow cooked dhal with saffron rice is one of our absolute go to’s for a bowl of warming, nourishing goodness. 🥣Inspired by a recipe in Dishoom’s cookbook “From Bombay with Love”, this is a lighter version for which we used split urad dhal.To make around 8 servings of dhal you will need ⬇️Ingredients - • 300g urad dhal• 4 cloves or garlic mashed to a paste with a little rapeseed or other vegetable oil and a little salt.• a thumb size piece of ginger. Peeled grated and mashed with a little oil and salt.• 70g tomato puree• 5-8g sea salt• 1/2 tsp chilli powder – depending on how spicy you like it. This wasn’t too spicy. Just a faint heat.• 1tsp Garam masala• 90g Ghee or Unsalted butter. For vegan option add a little more good quality oil.The How to - • Rinse the dhal 3-4 times until the water runs clear. The recipe suggests whisking it for 10 seconds then rise the water.• Add dhal and enough cold water to fully cover the dhal by around 5cm. • Bring to the boil, skimming off any impurities. • Lower the heat and simmer and continue to skim for around 2-3 hours. The grains should be completely soft.• Meanwhile, add garlic and ginger puree, tomato puree salt and spices to a bowl and mix to a paste.• When the dhal is soft, leave to sit in the water for around 15 mins then drain.• Add freshly boiled water. Enough to cover by a 2-3cm. • Add the spice paste and butter and bring to the boil and cook at a high temp for around 30 mins. (This is where you’ll need to keep an eye on it, so it doesn’t stick to the bottom.) • Reduce the heat and cook slowly at a low temp for around 90mins. Add a little water if it becomes too thick and sticks to the bottom. Stir frequently. • It’s ready when the grains have disintegrated and it becomes a very thick ‘soup-like’ consistency.We like to serve this with some saffron rice – you can find the full recipe on the website ➡️ lotushealthandfitness.co.uk/slow-cooked-dhal-with-saffron-rice/#dhalrecipe #nourishingrecipes #winterwarmers ...
