We've used shop-bought ones, but who's to know?! Tarka dal recipe, serves 4 For the dal: 100g red lentils (masoor dal) 1⁄2 tsp turmeric juice of 1⁄2 lemon plain yogurt, to serve (optional) shop-bought crispy fried onions, or see page 134 for home-made (optional) small handful of chopped coriander leaves For the tarka: 1 tbsp vegetable oil 2 tbsp butter 3⁄4 tsp cumin seeds 1 very small onion, chopped 4 fat garlic cloves, grated 2 smallish tomatoes, chopped 2 tsp ground coriander 1⁄4--1⁄2 tsp chilli powder Salt Method: Bring the lentils to a boil in a saucepan. Once the scum rises to the top, skim it off and add the turmeric. Leave to simmer while you make the tarka. For the tarka, heat the oil and butter in a frying pan and add the cumin seeds. Once they darken, add the onion and cook until soft and colouring on the edges. Add the garlic and cook gently for one minute, then add the tomatoes, spices and some salt and cook until the tomatoes soften and the whole thing reduces into a paste and releases oil back into the pan, around 15 minutes. Add the masala to the lentils, making sure you get all of it out of the pan. Cook the lentils for another six to eight minutes or so, or until the whole thing comes together and looks homogenous. It should neither be too thick nor too watery. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding a good squeeze of lemon juice. Serve in warmed bowls, topped with a swirl of yogurt and some crispy onions, if you like, and the coriander. --------------- Mumsnet is the UK's busiest parenting site – join in the conversation at http://www.mumsnet.com If you like this, you'll love our Easy homemade lemonade:    • Easy homemade lemonade | Mumsnet hacks   AND our Unbelievably easy pizza dough:    • Unbelievably easy pizza dough | Mumsn...   For more great videos subscribe to the Mumsnet YouTube channel, it only takes a second! http://tiny.mn/1k47ooT And don’t forget to follow us on Twitter:   / mumsnettowers   and like us on Facebook too:   / mumsnet
