Khatti Dal

Khatti dal is the most common side dish in hyderabad and it is made with lentils. This is made with toor dal or masoor dal, mostly it is in running consistency. Khatti dal means tangy lentils. I prefer eating khatti dal with roti or fulkas. Recipe is simple and quick to make. Many prefer this khatti dal with rice and with any non-veg fry. Here is the recipe.

Ingredients:

Toor dal/Masoor dal 1 cup
Onion 1 chopped
Tomato chopped

Tamarind a small piece

Pressure cook all the above ingredients. The dal has to be soft and mash the dal.

For seasoning :-

Season the dal with the above ingredients and garnish with coriander.
