Well, i haven't really done anything useful other than cooking lunch and completing and submiting the Project Documentation in the past two days.

 I'll just leave the recipe's here for my own future reference ^_^


Dal (The easy way)

[No. of people + 2 (3 for small hands)]*1 fist measurement= the quantity of Dal

Wash and pre soak Dal for 15 to 30 mins [it should break without much pressure from the nail]

1 onion and 1 tomato for 2 people. garlic half a bulb.

Cut the onions, tomatoes and garlic put them in 1 container

Prepare the curry leaves too

Put some red chilly powder, salt, coriander(Dhaniya) powder, turmeric (Haldi; yellow thing) in the container.

Now take the pressure cooker > heat it > put oil and wait for it to warm up.

Put zeera in oil > wait till it smells nice and it's making a popping sound > put in hing (heeng) > put in the curry leaves and green chilies(optional, should be spicy for spice). 

Now dump all the mixture in the container in the cooker slowly(don't burn you self)

Mix it around till you see that the onions have changed color(they seem cooked(soft/translucent).

Now put in the dal (not the water).

1 tea spoon of garam masala(market 1) else go with half a spoon if homemade. 

Give it a rough mix > and 1:4 ratio water (ratio of amt(dal) to the amt(water) i.e is 1 cup dal soaked => 4 cup water)[1:3 for me]

If the cooker is small at-least pour  twice the amount of water and close the cooker. Cooker should be 1/4th empty on the top preferably. 

1 tea spoon of garam masala(market 1) else go with half a spoon if homemade. 

Wait till 1 wistle(seeti) is there and take off of the heat.

If it stars leaking water in between lower the heat to the lowest setting.

And that should be it.


noodles....I'll put it up tomorrow.
