Indian Lentils : Photo-by-photo

Time for another healthy, Indian side perfect with my Daily Tiffin... It's a spiced-mixed-lentil-soup... What I have is the entire process, in images, and a caption to do with it.. I hope it helps...

Soaking the Lentils. I took 1 part each of Arhar, Masoor, Moong.. and soaked them in water for a couple of hours.

Now to temper it, we would be needing, Cumin Seeds, chopped Onions, Curry Leaves, Chopped Tomatoes.

Now heat oil in a Pressure Cooker. When heated enough, add the Curry leaves, Cumin Seeds and let them temper and fly around. Then add Onions. And let them brown a bit.

When the Onions are sautéed well, tumble in the chopped Tomatoes..

Then here's a concoction of Salt, Turmeric and Red Chillies. Add it to the Onion-Tomato mixture.

Now add the soaken-lentils and 4 times the water..

Put the lid of the pressure cooker on, wait till the whistle blows. Then turn the heat to slow and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. and let it stand till it cools down.

 Add fresh lemon juice and chopped coriander, for that near perfection... Served hot with Daily Tiffin.
