Subj : St. Hugh 15 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Wed May 12 2021 15:15:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall's Dahl Categories: Vegetables, Herbs Yield: 6 Servings 250 g Red lentils 1 ts Ground turmeric 3/4 ts Fine sea salt 2 tb Sunflower oil 1 ts Cumin seeds 1 lg Onion; halved, thin sliced MMMMM------------------------FINISH (OPT----------------------------- 1 sm Bunch parsley or coriander; - or a couple of sprigs of - mint, rough chopped Put the lentils in a pan with 800 ml cold water and bring to the boil. Skim off any scum, then stir in the turmeric and salt. Lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 15 minutes, stirring or whisking vigorously every now and then, until the lentils have broken down completely and you have a puree - the consistency of a thick soup or thin porridge. You can whisk in a little hot water from a just-boiled kettle if you need to thin it a bit. Keep warm in the pan. When the dhal is just about done, heat the sunflower oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and fry for a couple of minutes until browned and fragrant. Add the onion and fry fairly briskly for 5-10 minutes until golden brown, even just a smidge burnt. Tip the mixture on to the hot lentils in the pan, cover and leave for 5 minutes, then stir in the onions and cumin. Taste and adjust the seasoning. This is very good with coriander, parsley or mint sprinkled on top - but that’s not essential. RECIPE FROM: https://www.copymethat.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
