  Kalragh - My pressure cooker is a Fagor brand. Manjula’s looks almost the same as the one I have.

  Can you suggest other vegetable combinations that would work well with this recipe? I am not Indian but do have access to some Indian vegetables.

  Your videos are such an encouragement! I have been cooking Indian style for a few years, off and on, carefully following a recipe book and it went well. However, I watched this video (and the rajma bean stew yesterday), went out today and bought a really good pressure cooker (my old one was quite cheap) and I must say, this is SO delicious! I have two different toor dal dishes as you desribed here and love the contrast.

  Thank you! My lips are warm and glowing - Chilies!

  Hello
  Thanks for your videos- my family and I love Indian food. We’re Arabs and mom and I are vegetarian. We find Indian food especially accommodating.

  I was wondering if I could make it without a pressure cooker? If so, how long would it take to reach that consistency?

  Shukran.

  Manjula Ji,

  Which brand is your pressure cooker ?. Why I am asking is that in some brands, the dal leaks out while cooking in the base of the pressure cooker especially when the whistle comes on . thanks

  Paprika is a spice made from the grinding of dried sweet red or green bell peppers (Capsicum annuum). In many European countries, the name paprika also refers to bell peppers themselves. The seasoning is used in many cuisines to add colour and flavour to dishes.

  Is that the same as Cholian dhi daal? that’s what I think we call it in Punjabi.
