1. Toor dhal ... 1/2 kilo
2. Bengal gram ... 1/2 kilo
3. Dhaniya ... 3/4 kilo
4. Red chillies (dry) ... 1/4 kilo
5. Fenugreek ... 25 grams
6. Asafoetida ... 50 gms.
Procedure:

- Then add the bengal gram and fry well.
- Next, add the toor dhal followed by --
- Dry red chillies and this is followed by-
- Dhaniya. (PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE THIS ORDER)
- Even before the above procedures, separately fry the 50 gm asafoetida
with very little oil. Be careful not to powder the asafoetida before
