Creamy Dal Makhani.....!

           Dal Makhani is a special Punjabi dish which is very rich in proteins and fat. I tried Dal Makhani in my friend's place today and this is my friend's recipe. It really worked out well. So, just thought of sharing the recipe.

Things I used :

Urad dal (whole black gram)
Rajma dal (Kidney beans)
Tomatoes
Onions
Green Chillies
Oil
Ginger Garlic Paste
Garam Masala
Red Chilly Powder
Salt

My preparation :
  
I took a glass for measuring the quantity of Urad dal and Rajma. In one glass, I took Urad dal and Rajma taking 5:1 ratio and soaked it in a bowl with exactly 3 glasses of water overnight (almost 12 hrs). Today morning I boiled the soaked mixture for 3 hours in an electric cooker (almost 7 whistles in a pressure cooker).See that rajma beans become mashy. I took the mixture and kept it aside.

Now I prepared a tomato paste and onion paste with 4 Tomatoes and 2 Onions.(Onions can also be finely chopped) I chopped green chillies also.

Now, I poured some oil in the rice cooker and waited for the oil to get heated. After the oil is hot, I added chopped green chillies and fried it for few minutes,then added onion paste and fried till the colour changed.Now added the Ginger garlic paste,Garam masala, Red chilly powder and salt.After mixing well the aroma tickled my nose and then added tomato paste.I waited till oil seperated.

Dal Makhani is half ready now. I added the boiled dhal which I kept aside sometime before. After adding some water and mixing well.I added some salt and chilli powder to taste.

In the final stage I added butter and cream to garnish.Yummy Creamy Dhal Makhni looked this way..It tasted best with  Rotis, Phulkas and Rice.
