Dal Gosht


I heard of this dish name from quite a while..finally made this some days back and become star of my home menu.Traditional version use ghee to prepare this but i ditched and make in musturd oil and added ghee while serving which given nice aroma..You can use same amount of ghee instead of oil for richer version.
Many people use only bengal gram lentil but i prefer equal mixture of 3 lentils.So,here is my version of Dal Gosht.....

2tsp Coriander powder
1tsp Turmeric powder
1.5tsp Chili powder
Salt to taste
