Steps:
- If using desiccated coconut, soak in warm water to cover 1 hour and drain well in a sieve.
- Heat oil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook mustard seeds, cumin, dals, asafetida, chile, and curry leaves, stirring occasionally, until mustard seeds begin to pop. Stir in beans, water, and salt to taste and simmer, covered, until beans are just tender and most of water is evaporated, 6 to 8 minutes. Stir in coconut.
- Dals are dried legumes.
Tips:
- Soaking the beans overnight: Soaking the beans overnight helps to reduce the cooking time and makes them more digestible. If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 2-3 minutes, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
- Using a variety of spices: The key to making a flavorful dry curry is to use a variety of spices. Some common spices that are used in dry curries include cumin, coriander, turmeric, chili powder, and garam masala. You can adjust the amount of each spice to suit your taste.
- Cooking the curry over low heat: Dry curries should be cooked over low heat so that the spices have time to bloom and the flavors can develop. If you cook the curry over high heat, the spices will burn and the curry will be bitter.
- Adding vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, texture, and nutrients to dry curries. Some common vegetables that are used in dry curries include potatoes, carrots, peas, and cauliflower. You can also add other vegetables that you like.
- Serving the curry: Dry curries can be served with rice, roti, or naan. You can also serve them with yogurt or raita.
Conclusion:
Dry curries are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are easy to make and can be tailored to suit your own taste. Whether you are a beginner cook or a seasoned pro, I encourage you to give dry curries a try. You won't be disappointed!
