Tips

.Before Cooking :
Soak Smart: Soak all five lentils for 30–45 minutes to reduce cooking time and improve texture.
Uniform Cooking: Use a pressure cooker or instant pot for even cooking since different dals soften at different speeds.

After Cooking :
Flavor Finish: Always do a fresh tadka (tempering) of ghee and chili, (and cumin)—it elevates aroma and taste instantly.
