Notes

Tips for Andhra Tomato Pappu Recipe

1. Always use ripe, deep red coloured tomatoes for a  good taste and bright colour.
2. Try to de-seed the tomato and use, otherwise it gets stuck in the teeth.
3. For more tanginess, 1 tsp of tamarind paste can be pressure cooked along with dal.
4. For variation, equal measurement of toor dal and moong dal can be used.
5. I used chilli powder in tempering, but you can add while pressure cooking dal.
6. You can prepare this Tomato Dal Recipe, directly in pressure cooker too, first do the tempering, then add dal with water and proceed with 3 whistles.
7. I suggest using ghee for tempering which lends a nice aroma, but you can use oil too.
8. For a different taste, 1 small piece of ginger and 1/2 piece of chopped onion can be used in tempering.
9. This dal thickens with time, so adjust with water accordingly.
