Posted by
Ingredients:
- 1 large white pumpkin, washed, peeled, de-seeded and diced into cubes (we call it 'doodhi' in hindi, you should have about 1 1/2 cups of pumpkin chopped into cubes) (optional)
- 1/2 cup dried kasuri methi, crumbled between your palms
Directions:
- Heat oil in a pressure cooker or pot on medium flame.
- Once the oil is hot, lower flame and add cumin seeds to it.
- Allow to crackle.
- Once it stops crackling, add ginger, garlic, onion and green chillies.
- Mix well and stir-fry until the raw smell of ginger and garlic is gone, and the onions are softened.
- Drain the chana dal (lentils) and add it to the ginger-garlic mixture. Then, add the turmeric powder, kasoori methi, red chilli powder, salt, white pumpkin and the tomatoes.
- Mix well and add water to allow the lentils to cook.
- Cover and cook on medium flame for 20 minutes or till the lentils are soft {upto 3-4 whistles in your pressure cooker should be heard before you remove the cooker from heat}.
- Serve with rotis or bread or Dad's Half-way Sindhi and half-way yellow rice recipe.
