masur dahl
  • 2 cups red lentils
  • 7 cups water
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 4 thin slices ginger
  • 1 pinch ground dried turmeric
  • 1/3 cup ghee (clarified butter)
  • 2 red onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons ground coriander
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 dash cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro


  1. Bring lentils, water, and ginger to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. Skim off and discard any scum that forms, then stir in the salt, ginger and turmeric, and simmer until the lentils are tender, about 1 hour more.
  2. Meanwhile, melt ghee in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions and garlic. Cook and stir until the onions are soft and beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the coriander, cumin, cayenne pepper, and cilantro. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more, then set aside. Once the lentils are done, discard the ginger slices, stir in the onion mixture and ladle into bowls to serve.
