How to Cook Toor Dal
Rinse well and soak for 20–30 minutes to reduce cooking time. Pressure cook for 3–4 whistles or simmer for 30–40 minutes until completely soft. For dal tadka, mash lightly and finish with a sizzling tadka of ghee, cumin, mustard seeds, dried chilli, garlic, and tomatoes. For sambar, cook with tamarind water, vegetables, and sambar powder for an authentic South Indian result.
