Saathi: thanks for the info...I will check it out!

Personally, I barely use oil in my food...maybe 1- 1 1/2 tablespoons in my desi cooking.

Also, I tend to soak daal for 20-30 mins before cooking it which helps...

That happens to me a lot too...with my daal that lack consistency. One time I did use the hand blender, and my daal became a daal soup. I like my daal to be soft and sometimes its not :( Also, I end up adding tomatoes with the onions and corriander to give it some flavor. Good receipe Saathi

hey guys, try using a hand blender to blend up the daal before u add the bagar (u dont want to blend it when the curry leaves are in tehre). that helps with consistency :)

I cant get the consistency of the daal right.. Not sure if I'm doing the water to daal proportion right.. for 1/2 cup of daal how much water do I use?
