Simplest Pesarapappu

Hmm Monday morning; i never had any Monday morning blues...but this Monday was very painful
We've been to in laws for the weekend ; as we had to perform a pooja; for which we had to sit almost all through the day with an empty stomach
and the heat is at highest; it took off all the strenght that i had.
We started to back to hyd by a local passenger train and had to adjust myself between two fat ladies almost squeezing me.
The train journey was horrible !!!

Finally when i reached home; i was tired to move a step ahead; but still no other choice than cooking...
I opened the refrigerator to find no vegetable in there...just few dried curry leaves; semi fresh coriander and some
almost about die green chillies...

Painfully went to the kitchen; took my favorite pesara pappu(1 cup) and soaked it in the water.

I was too tired to first pressure cook the dal and then mash it and then tamper.

So i just thot I'll experiment by putting the tampering and dal and pressure cook the whole.

Then my cooking went on some thing like this

Add oil the cooker pan.
Add jeera, slitted green chillies and curry leaves.
Add onion slices; once its turned brown and transparent; add turmeric, crushed garlic(Yummy garlic is one God of all ingredients)
One more important flavor giver is coriander; chop it as thin and as tiny as possible.
Salt according to the taste.
now just add the soaked dhal with 1 1/2 cups of wate or more depending on much consistency you need.
After 3 whistles ; put off the flame
Open the lid to sniff the most exotic flavors haldi, garlic and dal.

Try this out when you are lazy to cook :-)
