Steps

1

First, soak the black lentils and kidney beans for 5-6 hours. Rinse them, then add to a pressure cooker with a little salt, turmeric, and enough water. Cook for 5-6 whistles until soft.
2

Heat oil in a pan, add cumin seeds, then ginger-garlic paste. Add pureed tomatoes (or tomato puree) and sauté well. Add all the spices, then add the cooked lentils and kidney beans. Bring to a boil for 2-3 minutes.
3

Add butter and mix well, then add cream. Transfer to a bowl, garnish with more cream, and serve hot with naan or paratha.
4

To make the naan, mix all-purpose flour with yogurt, oil, salt, and Eno. Add lukewarm water as needed to make a soft dough.
5

Divide the dough into balls, dust with flour, and roll out. Sprinkle finely chopped cilantro on top and roll again. Place the cilantro side down, brush the other side with a little water, and place on a hot skillet with the wet side down. Cook the naan over the flame until done.
