Steps to make Daal makhani:
- Wash and rinse urad dal (whole black lentil) and rajma (kidney beans) in a large bowl. Soak in 3 cups water overnight..
- In the morning, drain the water in which the dal and rajma was soaked. Transfer the dal and rajma to a pressure cooker with 1 teaspoon salt. Add around 3.5 cups water..
- Pressure cook on high-medium heat for 2 whistles, then lower the heat to low-medium and cook for another 20 minutes..
- Let the pressure release naturally. The dal and rajma should be completely cooked and you should be able to mash them with your fingers..
- Mash some of the dal and rajma using a potato masher. Then turn on the heat to lowest heat and let the dal simmer while you make the masala..
- To make the masala, in a large pot/pan, heat 2 tablespoons butterĀ (I use and recommend amul salted butter here) and 1 tablespoon ghee on medium heat..
- Once the butter melts and is hot, add the finely grated onion. Cook the onion for around 6 to 7 minutes or until it turns light golden brown. Keep stirring it continuously so that it doesn't burn and keep heat on medium..
- Add the ginger garlic paste and cook for 1 to 2 minute until the raw smell goes away..
- Add the tomato puree and mix. Cook for 2 minutes or until the puree mix well with masala and oil starts oozing out from the sides..
- Add in the boiled dal and Add 1/2 cup water, stir and set heat to low. Let it simmer on low heat uncovered for around 45 minutes..
- Stir often (every 10 minutes or so) else dal will stick to the bottom of the pot. You will also need to add water. I added total of 1.5 cups water as the dal was simmering..
- Garnish dal makhani with more cream and coriander serve with butter. Enjoy!.
