SUBRU UNCLE'S TOOR KI DAL(SINDHI STYLE) DAD, MOM AND I LOVE AND
This is the lentil curry that Subru uncle(our Chef at home in Muscat for the last 13 years!) makes almost thrice(or more) a week! My dad simply loves this lentil curry. He says he can have this 365 times a year, every single day, and be really happy! This is my dad's FAVOURITE food in the world! He wants me to make this for him while we are on holiday in the US! I have learnt this today! Since I am trying to cut on salt and oil in my food, I don't have this alot(though I have to admit, I love this too!). This is a very flavourful and tasty lentil curry. You can have a bowl of this on a cold winter night as a soup all by itself! This is the traditional Sindhi recipe for this curry. Some people(Gujrati Indians) add sugar to sweeten this, but we like it spicy! Yet, you will be amazed that this is not very spicy at all, but really a great lunch alongwith rice and yogurt! I'm so glad I finally have this down pat! Enjoy this curry that I'm posting with special honour to Subru uncle who gave me the sweetest compliment today saying that, "Your my daughter with cotton hands!" ;-)

Steps:
- Pressure cook the lentils (toor dal) in a pressure cooker alongwith 6 cups of water until the lentils are tender.
- Heat oil in a pot on medium-high flame.
- Once its hot, add mustard seeds, methi seeds and cumin seeds.
- Allow to splutter and crackle.
- Once they stop doing so, add in the curry leaves and ginger.
- Stir-fry for 5 minutes until the raw smell of ginger is gone.
- Add asafoetida powder and continue to stir-fry for another 5-7 minutes.
- Toss in the green chillies, mix well and continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes.
- Then add in the tomatoes and 1/4 cup of water to cook the tomatoes.
- Mix well and cook on high flame until the tomatoes are softened.
- Add salt, red chilli powder and turmeric powder.
- Mix well.
- Extract tamarind pulp from tamarind to use as tamarind water.
- To do this, soak about 3 inches piece of tamarind in 1 cup of hot water.
- Squeeze to extract the tamarind pulp and let it mix with the water to form'tamarind water' (that's what I call it).
- There is no need to pass this through a strainer- use it directly!
- Measure out 2/3 cup of tamarind water in a cup and add this tamarind water to the tomato mixture.
- Mix well and allow it to cook on medium-high flame for 5 minutes.
- In the meantime, open the pressure cooker (by this time the lentils will be tender and the whistle would have blown) and with the help of a beater/mashing tool (we use what we call a'mandira' in Hindi. This is a long wooden spoon with a round base that we use for mashing lentils, bananas, etc), in round circular motions, mash the lentils completely, until they mix with the water in which they were being cooked.
- Now add 5 cups of water alongwith the lentil and water mixture that was used to cook the lentils. Add the tamarind-tomato mixture, mixing gracefully, as you sing your favourite kitchen song side-by-side!
- Allow this to come to a boil.
- Lower flame and cook for 10 more minutes on a simmer.
- Remove from flame and serve immediately with cooked long-grain white Basmati rice.
- Serve hot (we serve it immediately because it doesn't taste very good once it gets cold) alongwith low-fat plain yogurt on the side for a complete wonderful Asian-Indian meal in rice and lentil curry heaven!
- My brother, Manav, says that my wud-be hubby is a lucky man cos I'll cook this for him and oh my, my bro adores this curry!
- Please note: If you have a sore throat, a running nose, fever, cough and cold, then PLEASE omit the tamarind altogether because using tamarind juice in this recipe when you have a bad throat, will only make your throat worse. This curry cooks awesome even without the tamarind juice. Enjoy!

SUBRU UNCLE'S DELICIOUS SPICY S.INDIAN RASAM CURRY WE LOVE
This is what Subru uncle has been making for the last 13 years for all of us to drink when we are down with cold or cough or fever or a bad throat(in short, when we are down with flu, this is our "HOMEMADE TONIC THAT WORKS LIKE MAGIC"! This REALLY works to cure us without a trip to the doctor! I'd say that this is the vegetarian equivalent to a bowl of chicken soup that non-vegetarians enjoy when down with the flu. We love this over a bowl of steaming hot long-grain cooked Basmati rice. Those who find this curry very spicy, can add some yogurt to rice and then mix in this curry and eat. To be enjoyed best, you simply got to eat this with your fingers! I hope you enjoy this as much as we do! This is one curry that we take to all the potlucks we go to, and, this is LOVED by everyone! Note that you can use plain water instead of the boiled yellow lentils water. Using the boiled lentils water makes this wonderful dish more flavourful!
