Ingredients

1 cup Yellow Split Peas (washed 3x and drained)

Salt

Daikon Radish (peeled cut into 3 inch lengths)

Canola Oil

Dried Chili

Kalonji (Nigella Seeds)

Cilantro

Green Chilies

Preparation

Boil 3-4 cups of water in pot. Add 1 cup of yellow split peas and salt and allow to come to a boil again. Keep covered and allow to boil (stirring occasionally) until daal is finished (will be soft). Use immersion blender to smooth the daal. Add in radish and allow to boil (you could also add in cabbage and green beans here). Allow radish to cook until soft. Separately make a forum, heat about 1 tbs of oil and add one dried chili (broken) once hot. Then add kalonji - it should sizzle. Pour forun in with daal and stir. Taste to check for salt. Add handful of cilantro (and green chilies if you want).
