This one too is from my Mom's collection! A very yummy accompaniment to plain rice served hot with ghee.
Ingredients:
Black sesame seeds/ Til - 100 gms
Urad dal/ Black gram - 2 spoons
Red chilly - 10 nos.
Seasoning:
Oil - 1 tbsp
Curry leaves - 3,4 numbers
Asafoetida/Hing - a very small piece
Salt to taste
How to:
Roast the red chillies in oil and keep aside
Dry roast (no oil) the sesame seeds and keep aside
Roast the other ingredients in the remaining oil - the dal, curry leaves and asafoetida together and keep side
Coarsely grind the dal, chilly, curry leaf and asafoetida mixture first and finally add the sesame seeds for one final whirl before you end.
Add salt in the end and mix well. Goes well with steaming hot rice and a blob of ghee/ clarified butter!
When stored appropriately it stays for over a month.
Bon appetit!
