== Ingredients ==
* 400g mung dal
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed
* 1cm piece of root ginger, grated or finely chopped
* 2 teaspoons turmeric
* 2 small green chillies, 1 finely chopped, 1 left whole
* 2 tablespoons peanut oil (or other oil)
* 2 shallots, finely sliced (can substitute 1 onion)
* 2 teaspoons cumin seeds
* 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
* 1/2 teaspoon asafoetida
* 1 teaspoon crushed chilli
* fresh coriander, chopped to serve

== Method ==
* Wash the dal until the water runs clear, then drain and put in a large pan and cover with 2 litres of water. Bring to the boil and skim off any scum that rises to the surface.
* Add the salt, garlic, ginger, turmeric and chopped chilli to the pan, turn down the heat, cover, leaving the lid slightly ajar, and simmer very gently for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until the dal has broken down completely and become creamy.
* Add boiling water or reduce the dal further to achieve your preferred consistency if necessary, and adjust seasoning to taste. Then add the whole chilli and simmer for 15 minutes.
* Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium high heat and add the shallots. Stir until golden and beginning to crisp, then add the dried spices and cook for a couple of minutes until the mustard seeds are beginning to pop. Tip over the dal, stir in, and serve topped with chopped coriander.
