Colorful and healthy Masoor dal Koottu (combo) Recipe
Masoor dahl Koottu (combo) has all four most important ingredients in a recipe-colour, aroma, taste and nutrients. I use quite a few spices and herbs in my cooking because of their health benefits. In addition I grow a variety of culinary herbs in our garden. I mostly cook in low heat as slow cooking keeps the nutrients alive. In hot oil, over medium low heat tempered mustard, fennel seeds, black cumin, and hing. I then added curry leaves, ginger, garlic, cilantro turmeric. After a couple of minutes sautéed onion along with green chiles. Stirred in carrots, tomatoes, broccoli stem, after a few minutes added water, increased the heat to medium high. Added masoor dahl to the boiling water, simmered the heat. When dahl is fully cooked, stirred in coconut milk. Turned the heat off. Salted it. Finally I garnished with green and yellow parsley. ready within 30 minutes.
