Kadlebele Kootu - Channa Dal Kootu

Kadle Bele Kootu is a popular recipe we normally prepare during special ocassions or festivals as this does not need any onion or garlic in its preparation.
It will be thicker than sambhar in consistency and makes for a wholesome meal.

Ingredients
--------------
KadleBele/Channa Dal - 1 cup
Vegetables - Carrot, Beans, ChowChow, Noolkol, Peas/Avrekai
Tamarind - soak


Grind
--------
Fresh coconut - 1/2 cup
Gasgase/Poppy seeds - 1 tsp
Onion Fried (Optional)

> Pressure cook dal, all the vegetables and tomato for 3-4 whistles
> Remove the veggies once cooked and mash the dal.
> Add in Sambhar powder, ground masala, tamarind water, salt, jaggery.
> Keep stirring as the mixture would be a little thick and channa dal sticks  to the pan and burns if left for long.
> Bring it all to boil and season with mustard, hing and curry leaves.
