Mixed Dal ideas

Question : Girls monna ma ayana ni toor dal temmante mixed dals techaru adenti ante five vunayyi better emo ani techanu anta 🙆 danilo toor dal, urad dal, chana dal, masoor dal, moong ( anukunta not sure ) dal vunayyi .. denini deniki use cheyagalanu ?! Pls help .

 Usha Rao : panch ratan dal cheseyu. It should be fine. I did mix 5 dals but sometimes I mix 2-3 varieties of dal to make dal. Normally o don't add ginger and garam masala but for mixed dal ginger vestanu and pinch garam masala or in tempering whole garam masala. Vada should also taste good. Again I never tried with 5 dals. But I think it would taste fine

Padmini Reddy Jalaja dosa batter appudu soak cheyyi . One cup mixed dal , one cup urad dal and three cups rice with tea spoon menthuluu

Meera Girija Tadimeti: Panchmel dal chesta and I use whole urad gota with skin. Konchem pasupu vesi Hawkins cooker lo cook chestey baga ostundi.

Ala baga chikkaga ayyaka, konchem amchur and home made or punjabi garam masala vesi kalapali. It tastes really good. Key ingredient is lot of cooking, garlic and the good garam masala

Charu with homemade Charu Powder

Contributor: Geetha Madhuri
already andaru cheppinattu unnaru kada rasam recipe nenu naa version postuta which I learnt from my mom. Amma charu/rasam ki chala mandi fans unnaru.

1st I make charu podi and store. It's made of 1cup turdal, 1cup dhaniyalu, 50 gms of jeera and black pepper, approx 20-25 red chillies. I use little more black pepper as I like the flavour. Dry them and powder little coarse.
Now take a lemon size tamarind and soak it in water and extract pulp. Add some more water to this. Water quantity varies according to the sourness of tamarind. Allow it to boil while u add diced tomatoes, salt, small piece of jaggery(optional), 2tsps of the powder, curry leaves and coriander. I usually don't add dal to my charu. If I add I'll add about 1cup of Tur dal boiled and the procedure is same but it'll be called pappu charu in our house. After it is boiled give it tempering with fenugreek seeds, jeera, mustard seeds and red chilly. If you like u can add hing orelse garlic and mix it to the charu. It's very tasty and is more like a clear soup😛
If you want to avoid tamarind u can do it completely with tomatoes or u can add dry/ fresh mango or just boil it without tamarind pulp and after u off the stove, add lime juice. All are equally tasty.

For sambar powder I also add fenugreek seeds about 3/4th cup and a fistful of channa dal and powder it. Then procedure is same like pappu charu except that we boil veggies and dal qty is more.

I do it in this way......I have a carriage type cooker in which there are 3 cups....oka cup lo rice, oka cup lo dal and 3rd cup lo all veggies,,,, all together I cook for 3 vessels so all are cooked at a time ....then I grind the boiled dal to make a paste. Then, take kadai, do popu/ tadka, then add this ground toor dal to it, then add the boiled veggies over it , add the tamarind juice, little bit Jaggery, 1 spoon mtr sambar powder ( I use ready made ones if u want u can also use home made ones), add 1 spoon dhaniya powder ( my mom made this and gave it to me ). Keep boiling all this and add salt and atlast add cilantro leaves............................thatz it finished.

Mango Dal

1. Contributor: Pranvi R .....
Mango dal - first boil toor dal in a pressure cooker.. peel the skin of mango.. cut into small ( not very small) cubes , wash, sprinkle lil water and cook in mmicrowave.. nenu toor dal pressure cooker lo pettetappude aa paina oka chinna bowl lo ee mamidikaya mukkalu kooda pettesta... koncham methaga avutayi mukkalu... thts ok for us.. some ppl don't like the mango pieces to be mushy.. they like them as it is... if u also want the mango pieces to hold their shape and still be cooked... cook it in microwave..

now in a pan, take oil and when it is hot.. do the tempering with urad, jeera, mustard, curry leaves, hing, dry red chillies and few slit green chilles.... (u can also add garlic pods if u want) once they are done... add lil turmeric and mix and to it add the boiled mango pieces... mix well and now add chilli powder .... let it boil for 2mins and add the cooked toor dal .... mix all well and add salt.... let it boil for another 2-3mins... adjust the consistency by adding water... I usually retain the water from the mango's and use it in the end... finally add chopped coriander leaves

NOTE : if the mago is not sour enuf... u can add lil tamarind juice
