- MASOOR DAL | Red Lentils | Indian Instant Pot Recipe | Vegan | The Pot Thickens
You can make this quick delicious Indian instant pot recipe for masoor dal on a weeknight or anytime. This is a vegan red lentils recipe packed with protein and flavor. I love red lentils as they cook quickly and have a wonderful creamy texture. With just a few spices, you can make this flavorful dish come alive in your bowl. Cooking in an instant pot is quick and easy and lets you get dinner on the table in a flash, but you can make this easily and quickly on the stove, too.
Ingredients:
2 cups red lentils (masoor dal) washed well
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 large onion
6 cloves garlic
1” fresh ginger
1 large jalapeño seeded
2 tomatoes, chopped
1 tbsp cumin seed
1 tbsp mustard seed
1 tsp coriander powder
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp Kashimiri red chili powder
2 dried red chilis
6-7 curry leaves
1/2 tsp asafoetida (hing)
2 tsp salt
8 cups water
Instructions:
Heat oil in the instant pot on the sauté setting or in a pot over medium heat. Add the mustard and cumin and cook for about 30 seconds until the aromas start to release. Add asafoetida and dried chilis then add the curry leaves. Fry for 30 seconds and then add the onions. Cook for about 3-4 minutes and add the jalapeño, garlic and ginger. Cook another 5 minutes until softened. Add the dried spices, tomatoes and salt. Cook down or about 5 minutes. Add the rinsed dal and 8 cups of water. Stir well. Cook for 5-10 minutes under high pressure then let the instant pot cool and pressure release naturally. If using the stove, cook for about 20 minutes until the dal is soft and creamy.

This recipe is incredible! Please post more of these, I subscribed!
Thanks. I really appreciate that. I have a lot planned, so stay tuned. I don’t think I can post as many videos as you do, but I’ll do my best!
@@ThePotThickens Quality over quantity right :)
One of my favourites! I love how you can make this in the Instant Pot! Well done with the recipe, it looks super delicious!
Thanks. It’s so easy.
Love dal for breakfast! Yum!
Yum. Me too.
I love this❤
Thank you.
Great video, everything is well laid out, thank you
Very welcome
I halved the recipe and this makes a ton of food! I’m gonna make a bunch of freezer meals with this I added some turnip greens and it worked well! Never tried asafetida before and wow it is powerful stuff I’ll have to try it in some other recipes!
Thanks. Yes, it can be strong but I live the flavor it gives.
I have the Mini-Delux - when halved, this recipe is a perfect match for my IP! I'm very fond of red lentils, no one needs to starve with basics like this around - dals, soups, flatbreads, etc, so economical, tasty, quick to cook & very nutritious. 😇🌠 Great recipe, will be trying today! 🙋
Thanks. This is one of my go to recipes. I hope you like it.
We loved it, thank you! 👯♀️
nice presentation at the end. yin and the yang!
Thank you!
Good video thank you, simple.
You’re welcome
I have an Instant Pot and a bunch of red lentils to use up, so I started searching for relevant videos. This one looks delicious and I can't wait to try it! I'm in the U.S., but I have a large Indian food mart near me, so I know I can get the spices. I especially like that this recipe doesn't depend on coconut milk, which adds a lot of fat.
Thanks. It is pretty easy and delicious.

Let me know below what your favorite Indian food is!
Hello!! I love your videos! I have subscribed :)!!! I especially love that you have a vegan/plant based channel!! I am also a vegan. You should make a video on why you chose to create vegan content! I think it would be really cool to hear why you chose the vegan life.
Thanks so much! I appreciate that. I am planning to do some live chats where I will be sharing more of my philosophy and my veganism. I am thinking of doing a chat/Q&A regularly.
Great presentation, thank you.
I've just got my instant pot, I would have liked to have seen which buttons you pressed to cook the dhal.

I just used the manual high pressure setting for the time in the video. Thanks for watching!
I have been having IP problems with the food burn message. I always soak legumes overnight and I think they may then be unable to float and immediately stick to the bottom. I have noticed the split reds soaked have these black flecks that look like insects. Since I have found them EVERY time and purchased masoor from everywhere, it must be part of the plant but it sure looks like bugs!!! Yuk. We all know what weevils look like in our grain and it really turned me off so started to use other legumes. But reds my fave. I love to use fenugreek seeds along with my faves cardamom and garam masala. Thanx for showing, I definitely have been overlooking and overcooking, nevertheless still delicious and have been making weekly for about 18 months now!!
Thanks for watching. Appreciate the comments. I'm not sure I have seen the flecks you are talking about but I'll look closer next time.
Do you ever stick a can of coconut milk in there?
I think it would be good, but I generally don’t use coconut with dals. Traditionally they are more simple and let the flavors of the legumes dominate. I do make a wonderful beet curry with coconut milk and peanut based sauce. I’ll add that to my list of curries to do for the channel.
There’s rice function on instapot
Yes!
