Sprouted Whole Red Lentil Curry (Masoor)

This curry is made with two additional main ingredients, which arecaramelized onions and garlic, both chopped into thin strips. Coming up here is the recipe which goes well with rice, bread and roti. The lentil has to be soaked for 3 hours, drained and kept at least for a day tied in a thick cloth, this will help it to sprout. I have used gooseberries  (amla) which are abundant in the market right now. I am almost substituting this in all dishes which need a sour ingredient, till the season lasts.

Ingredients

2 cups of  sprouted whole red lentil pressure cooked to 2 whistles
2 onions chopped into thin strips
6 garlic cloves chopped into long strips
1 tspn of chilli powder or as per your taste
1/2 cup of grated gooseberry, the bigger variety
Salt to taste
Freshly chopped coarinader

Method

in a pan heat oil/clarified butter, add the garlic, caramelize it, add the onion too saute till caramelized, now add the rest of the ingredients, mix well add water as per your need, more if you wish to have with rice, less if you want to have with  read or roti. Cook well, let all the taste of the caramelized ingredients come into the curry, serve hot.
