Dal Curry

What does it mean ‘to temper’ when you make a curry?  Does it mean to balance the flavour?

Temper means for certain Indian we don't add oil and few dry ingredients at beginning.. at final step we use to fry those dry ingredients in oil and pour it over. If we fry it all the flavours and aroma comes out.

Prasel, in step one in the pressure cooker, do you not add any water?
Prasel
Prasel @cook_prasel
Yes you have to add 1:2 water. Sorry I forgot to mention it.
