Method

  5. Press START/STOP to begin cooking (unit will steam for before cooking).
  6. Once cooking is complete, remove the pan carefully.
  7. Prepare tadka by heating ghee, add cumin seeds and whole red chilli, then add salt. Pour tadka over the cooked dal.

    Our tip Use a small pan on the hob. The ghee is hot enough when a cumin seed sizzles at once; let the cumin darken a shade, add the chilli for a few seconds and pour.

  8. Serve hot and enjoy.
