Answer 2

Dal Moth ki Chaat

Ingredients:

1/4 cup any chutney of your choice (see recipes below or use store bought

1&1/2 teaspoons Chaat Masala (or store-bought), to taste

1 cup dried dew beans (moth dal), sorted and washed in 3 to 4 changes of water

1/2 cup dried split yellow chickpea (channa dal), sorted and washed in 3 to 4 changes of water

1/3 teaspoon ground turmeric

1/2 teaspoon red chili pepper,to taste

1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste

3 to 4 cups water

2 tablespoons peeled minced fresh ginger

1 medium tomato, finely chopped

4 to 5 scallion, finely chopped

2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

1/3 cup finely chopped fresh cilantro, including soft stems

METHOD:

Prepare the sonth chutney and the chaat masala. Then pace both dals, the turmeric, cayenne pepper, salt, and water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pan, and simmer until all the water has evaporated, about 25 minutes, leaving behind a soft-cooked, dry dal. Mix in the ginger and let cool.

When cool, mix in the tomato, scallions, lime juice, cilantro, and chaat masala. Transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with sonth chutney, and serve, preferably at room temperature.
