Dhal Toori
« on: October 16, 2013, 07:46 PM »
This is on Julian Voigt's youtube channel.  Tried it today and honestly the best vegetarian curry ever.



Ingredients
1 tsp cumin seeds
Half onion chopped
Tomato chopped
1 tbsp tomato paste mix
Garlic and ginger paste
1 tbsp garam masala
A little chilli powder to taste
2 tsp dried methi leaves
2 courgettes pealed and cut into thin pieces
Lemon juice
Corriander
1 ladle base gravy
Salt to taste
1 tbsp veg oil
Pan of hot oil for deep frying
2 tbsp Pre cooked lentils

Method

Heat pan
Add oil and heat
Once hot add cumin seeds and fry off for a few seconds
Add onion and cook until softened
Add garlic and ginger paste and cook for about thirty seconds
Add methi
Add tomato and tomato paste
Add garam masala, chilli and salt and stir
Allow to cook for a few minutes, adding water to prevent burning if necessary
Meanwhile drop courgette pieces into hot oil and fry for a few mins until soft and slightly browned
Drain courgette pieces and add to pan and mix in carefully
Add base gravy and mix in
Mix in lentils
On high heat cook until reduced, do not stir to allow spices to caramelise on bottom of pan
Add corriander and lemon juice
Cook for further minute

Here's the video of it being cooked in the restaurant in Lanzarote (starts cooking 9:10 into the vid):

Looks good but would the lentil be precooked with spices or just boiled in water?
