Rice

  • cups Premium long-grain basmati, aged rice.
  • 5 cups Water
  • 3 tbsp Ghee
  • 1 tbsp Oil
  • 1 tsp Cumin Seeds
  • 2 small Cinnamon sticks
  • ¼ tsp Black peppercorns

Instructions
 

Cooking the dall

  • Wash your toor daal until the water runs clear and the oil has washed away. Once washed ideally soak overnight or at least 1 hour prior to cooking.
  • Add the washed daal to a suitable saucepan; to the daal the whole spices: star anise, mace and daager phool (stone flower)
    Cover the dall with fresh water, add enough to approx 2 inches about the dall – you will need to top up more as required. Place your saucepan on a medium heat and allow the dall mixture to come to a simmer.
  • You will need to stir occasionally to ensure the dall mixture doesn’t catch at the bottom of your saucepan. The daal needs to cook completely until it starts to break up and get mushy, this process will take at least 1¼ to 1½ hours. It is important the daal is properly cooked through.
  • Whilst the daal is cooking, you should start cooking the lamb – a good guide would be around 30 minutes after the daal, this will ensure the dall and gosht (lamb) will be ready at approx the same time.

    Assalamualaikum. JazakAllah for your time and effort. May Allah reward you.
    In the rice recipe do you add the chana daal with the rice? Will the daal cook in time when the rice is done?

      Yes the chana daal will get cooked – ideally leave it to soak and you should have no problems.
