At last my Pressure Cooker has arrived! So I will be using it from now on since I have seen your recipe for Indian Tadka Dhal.... looking forward to cooking more Indian food in it! Thank you x
My goodness! This is perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. I didn’t know pressure cooker was the was the secret, nor did I know how spices made this dish look so wonderful. Thank you.
India uses pressure cookers for a lot of dal and meat recipes.. In fact India is probably the largest culture to use this cooker.. Buy one if you're serious about Indian cooking :-)
Hi Chef. Just saw your video cooking Tadka Dal with the Indian Pressure Cooker. What actually captured my attention was, when the Pressure Cooker was under pressure during high heat (whistle sounded & steam released from the valve) and you turned down the heat to low and continued cooking for another 3 mins on timer. Subsequently the 1st. whistle sounded followed by the 2nd. & 3rd. at intervals of a minute (at this point correct me if I’m wrong with regards to the sound of 3 whistles set according to timer). Is there a timer on the Pressure Cooker to set number of whistles? By the way what’s the brand of this particular Pressure Cooker and the capacity? Thks.
No the whistle is the time you just count... However if you're using a instant pot or somthing similar set your timer for 7-8 minutes. Each whistle in a pressure cooker is roughly 2.5 minutes ish
You can start with 3 litre pressure cooker, moong dal cooks with one whistle and later you should cook it in open cooker. Be careful with the pressure cooker, the lid should only be opened once all steam has been whistled out after turning the stove off. Good luck
Hello from France. Very nice video. Perfectly explained! With smile! Please how long should I cook lentils without pressure cooker? I subscribe! And put a like!
She said using pressure cooker reduce cooking time of 70%. So if with pressure cooker lentils are ready in 3 minutes... It also depends on how you like the texture of your lentils.
So this is a tough question because it all depends on the pulse and whether you've taken the time to soak.. The pulse that Monica is using will take around 20 minutes after pre soaking so soak for 1-2hrs then cook checking after 20 minutes.. I've been cooking Indian food, mostly south Indian, for 30 years but it's always learning :-)
Though often translated as lentils, dals are actually any split pulses (legumes). A pulse refers to the dry, edible seed of the pod. This includes beans, lentils, peas, and other little seeds in lentils or beans. So, any split legume is considered a dal in Indian culture
This is wonderful. You have also taught me how to make the best Indian rice in the world 🌎

This is a good video but it is far too long with too much talking. Five minutes should be about the right length.
Mung isn't a lentil, mung is a bean.
