Instructions to make Authentic Indian Dal Makhani Recipe from a Restaurant
- In a big mixing cup, soak urad dal and rajma overnight.
- Drain the water and add 1 teaspoon of salt to the rajma and dal in a pressure cooker.
- Add about 3.5 cups of water. Allow 10 minutes for the pressure cooker to whistle, then reduce to low-medium and cook for another 10 minutes. It took me about 15-20 minutes in total.
- Next, mash rajma and dal with your fingers. You can use a potato masher. Then turn the heat to the lowest and let the dal simmer while you make the masala.
- Begin preparing masala in a large pot or pan. Add two tablespoons of butter and one tablespoon of ghee on medium flame.
- Once the butter is melted, you can add the finely grated onion.
- Cook onion for about 6 to 7 minutes or keep until it’s golden brown. Keep stirring it continuously so that it does not burn.
- Add ginger-garlic paste and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the uncooked smell goes away.
- Add tomato puree and mix.
- Cook for around 2 minutes, or until the puree is well combined with the masala and the oils begin to ooze out the sides.
- Mix in the dal that has been boiled. Garam masala, Kashmiri red chilli powder, and salt are also added. To merge everything, mix it all together.
- Pour in half a cup of water and stir to combine.
- Cook for 45 minutes on low heat, unwrapped. When pouring half a cup of water, stir often.
- Mix sugar. Then add 1 tablespoon butter and ¼ cup cream.
- Simmer for ten more minutes on low heat after putting in the cream. Dal will become creamy by now.
- Place a steel bowl on top of a vessel placed inside the dal if you want to add a smoky taste. Then, over direct fire, heat a piece of charcoal until it boils.
- Put hot charcoal in that steel bowl on the top. Pour melted ghee on top of the charcoal.
- Lastly, close the pan with a lid. Let it stay for 2 minutes. Afterward, remove the top and the bowl from the dal.
- The longer you keep the lid closed, the smokier it will get. Garnish it with cream and serve with a pat of butter.
