O călătorie culinară autentică direct în inima Indiei: Panchmel Dal este un curry regal de linte, îmbogățit cu roșii dulci, ghimbir proaspăt și o infuzie tadka în unt clarifiat. Hrănitor, cremos și plin de savoare, este preparatul ideal pentru seri reconfortante alături de cei dragi.
Preparation method
Boiling the lentils
Rinse the lentils well in several changes of cold water, then bring to a boil in a spacious pot with 800 ml of water, half a teaspoon of ground turmeric, and half a teaspoon of sea salt.
Simmer over medium heat for 20-25 minutes, until the lentils become soft and creamy. Gently mash a few lentils with the back of a spoon to achieve a velvety consistency.
Preparing the sauce and aromatic infusion (Tadka)
In a deep pan, heat the clarified butter (ghee) over medium heat. Add the ground cumin and let it sizzle for 30 seconds to release its aromas.
Chef's tip
For an even richer flavour typical of Rajasthani cuisine, add another teaspoon of hot clarified butter (ghee) directly over the curry bowl when serving.
This curry becomes even tastier the next day, as the spice flavours harmonise in the thick lentil sauce.
