Red Lentil Curry - Masoor Dal Tadka - Dal Tarka - Masoor Dal Recipe
If there is one food that I can have everyday for lunch or dinner, it is dal in any form. Whether it is dal tadka made with red lentils or any type of lentils. Dal is a staple food of India and sometimes I am really amazed thinking about the innumerable recipes there are, with each region having their own special way of making daal. Today I chose red lentils for making dal tadka where Dal = lentils and tadka/tarka/chounk is seasoning or tempering the dal with hot oil/ghee and your choice of spices. You can even make this with yellow lentils or a combination of different type of lentils. Serve this dal with rice, roti, naan or a toasted bread along with any vegetable curry of your choice. Please visit my channel page for your choice of vegetable curry.
Ingredients required for making dal tadka - Serves 10
For cooking the dal -
Just remember not to add ginger while cooking the dal as shown in the above video because ginger will be fried later in this recipe.
* 3 cups boiling hot water
* 1/4 th teaspoon turmeric powder (haldi)
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
For cooking the curry -
* 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
* 1 large onion
* 1 & 1/2 inch length ginger finely grated
* 2 large garlic cloves chopped
* 2 large ripe tomatoes
* 2 cups of hot water (Add more if you want your dal to be more soupy)
* 1 tablespoon chopped coriander stalks(optional)
* 1 green chilli chopped (optional). Can even use jalapeño or Serrano peppers
* 1 teaspoon salt or as per taste
* 2 tablespoons oil
For the spice paste -
* 1/2 teaspoon red chilli powder (optional). You can even use paprika if you so not want the heat. Please adjust the proportion of chili powder according to your preference.
* 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder (haldi)
* 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander (dhania powder)
* 4 tablespoons water
* coriander leaves (as little or as much)
For the tadka -
* 1 tablespoon ghee. You can even use oil or butter or a combination of oil and butter/ghee
* 1 dry red chilli
* 2 large garlic cloves sliced thinly
* 1/4 th teaspoon red chilli powder/paprika
Tips -
* wash your lentils very well before cooking until the water runs clear.
* cook the lentils till they are buttery soft.
* do not mash the dal too much after cooking.
* this dal stays good in the fridge for 3 to 4 days but keep them in separate containers for each day. Too much handling spoils dal very fast. You can even freeze this dal.
* if you want a more runny dal then add more water.
* dal thickens up a lot once it cools down. You can always add some water before heating and bring it up to a boil or microwave it. In that case check for seasoning and add a sprinkle of salt if required.

Good morning Bumbi. Thank you for such a great recipe. Made it but added 1/2 teaspoon of sugar. We bought a coconut for the cholar dal which I’m about to make but wondering if I need to soak the kishmish first? Thank you Bumbi. I’m so grateful I found you!

Hi Bumbi. This is exactly how I make my dal tadka. The only difference is that, I use a mix of moong dal, tuvar dal, chilti moong dal and masoor dal. Sometimes I also add some peas to the dal as my family loves it. Nothing better than hot jeera rice and dal tadka . It’s my favourite comfort food. 😋😋
