Steps:
- Put the dal in a medium-sized pot with 5 cups of water. Bring to a boil, skimming the foam that rises to the top. Once it boils, stir in the turmeric and cover partially, occasionally stirring. Cook for 75 minutes, being careful to check and stir a few times after 60 minutes. Stir in the salt when the dal is done.
- While the dal cooks, heat the ghee in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the mustard and cumin seeds. Stir for 30 seconds and then add the onion. Saute 5-6 minutes or until the onion starts to brown.
- Add the garlic, ginger, and green chili and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- Add the spinach and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil and cover. Cook until the spinach wilts, around 8-10 minutes.
- When the dal is done cooking, add the spinach mixture to it and combine. If the dal feels too dry, stir in a bit of water to a consistency of your liking. Adjust salt to taste.

Steps:
- Heat a large non-stick pan and dry-fry the cumin seeds for 1 min, stirring often, while they pop. Remove and set aside. Cook the rice following pack instructions.
- Heat the oil using the same large pan, add the onion, garlic, ginger and chilli, and sauté over a medium heat for about 3 mins. Reduce the heat, add all the spices, stir well and cook for a further 2 mins.
- Add the tomatoes, stirring, and use the side of a spoon to break them up into smaller bite-sized chunks.
- Add the chickpeas and 200ml water. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 mins.
- Stir in the lemon juice and spinach. Let the spinach wilt, then remove the pan from the heat.
- Divide the rice between 2 bowls, and serve the curry. (The flavours intensify as it cools, so for a fuller flavour, make earlier in the day and reheat slowly prior to serving.)

CHANA DAL (YELLOW LENTILS) WITH SPINACH
Chana dal (or bengal gram) is my favorite variety of lentil, and together with spinach with a wonderful blend of spices in this dish, makes for a very wholesome, nourishing meal.Prep time does not include time for pre-soaking lentils. (Note: this is a rather dry lentil dish, if you prefer the more wet, soupy variety then you could opt for another recipe with chana dal that I have posted: #83985)

Steps:
- Wash lentils and allow to soak in water at least an hour before use (I usually let mine soak overnight).
- Drain the lentils, place in a large pot with enough water to cover the lentils, bring to a boil and let simmer for 20-30 minutes until the lentils have softened (you may use additional water to do this).
- Cook uncovered to let the cooking liquid evaporate - but be careful not to overcook such that they become mushy.
- Heat oil, add bay leaves and cinnamon, and then fry mustard seeds till they sputter, then add onion, ginger, garlic and chili and fry a further 5 minutes.
- Add spinach and cook for 10 minutes or until spinach is dry and liquid has been absorbed.
- Stir in the remaining spices and salt and cook for 3-4 minutes.
- Finally add the lentils, stir and cook a further 5 minutes.

- To make this delicious snack recipe, soak the chana dal for an hour and then pressure cook it. Once done, drain the excess water. Then take a pan and heat it over moderate flame. Add the dal in the pan and fry it for few seconds.
- Then add finely chopped spinach, onions, green chillies in the pan. Stir well and add besan, salt, chana masala powder, chaat masala powder, green chilli, ginger and onion. If you want a tangy flavour, then you may add little lemon juice to it as well. Remove from flame and allow the mixture to cool.
- Now make round balls of this mix. Flatten them a bit using your palms and shape them like a cutlet. Take a pan and add refined oil in it for frying. Heat it over high flame or for around 5-6 minutes. Once the oil is sufficiently hot, add the prepared cutlet in the pan and deep fry them till they turn golden brown from both the sides.
- Transfer the cutlets in a serving plate and wipe them with an absorbent paper/tissue paper to remove extra oil. Serve the delicious cutletes with green chutney or tomato ketchup.
