I've started liking to make two side dishes with dal.
cumin potato
Cube 1 large potato and boil it for 10-15 min in water with 1 tsp salt.
Add 1 Tbsp ghee or oil and 1 tsp cumin seeds to pan over medium high heat + 1 tsp mustard seeds. Wait for mustard to pop. Toss potato in spiced oil.
Optional: toasted slivers of almond, etc.
Green bean poorial
Goodly amount of green beans cut into 1" lengths.
1 Tbsp ghee or oil with 1 tsp mustard seed and a few Tbsp of urud dal (for crunch and nutty flavor). Toss green beans in there ... add 1 Tbsp or two of water to let the green beans steam. Add in 1-2 Tbsp grated fresh coconut. A few dried red chilies at the beginning might be good.
