Directions
Prepare the Lentils
Rinse the black lentils under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak them in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Cook the Lentils
In a large pot, add the soaked lentils and 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 30-40 minutes until the lentils are soft.
Add Spices and Tomato
Add ginger, garlic, and green chilies to the pan. Sauté for 2-3 minutes. Then add turmeric powder, coriander powder, and the pureed tomato. Cook for another 5 minutes.
Combine and Simmer
Add the tempered mixture to the cooked lentils. Stir well and add salt and garam masala. Let it simmer for another 10-15 minutes.
Finish and Serve
Stir in lemon juice and garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before serving.
