This dish is made up of Black whole Urad dal (black gram). The factor that makes dal makhani different from other dishes is the inclusion of mixed cream and tomatoes as a souring agent.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike many western dishes that can be prepared quite quickly, the key to achieving the best flavor in dal makhani is slow cooking.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another similar invention by the same inventor is butter chicken. This, along with dishes like Amritsari dal makhani and Peshawari dal makhani are quite famous all over the world.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Oberoi Dal Makhani Recipe&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Recipe at a glance&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Prep time<\/td><td>2.5 hours<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Serves<\/td><td>3-6 people depending on the ingredients&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Nutritional info&nbsp;<\/td><td>1 cup contains: 330 calories, 19g fat, 44mg cholesterol, 31g carbohydrates, Protein: 13.2g\u00a0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Best served with&nbsp;<\/td><td>Butter naan, bread, and jeera rice&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n<facebook><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FTheOberoiGrand%2Fposts%2F3367191933314400&#038;show_text=true&#038;width=500\" width=\"500\" height=\"737\" style=\"border:none;overflow:hidden\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture; web-share\"><\/iframe><\/facebook>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ingredients required&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Dal<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>100-150 grams of whole black lentils&nbsp;<\/li><li>50-gram chickpeas (can also be substituted with garbanzo beans)<\/li><li>50 grams red kidney beans&nbsp;<\/li><li>20-30g ginger, peeled and finely chopped&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li><li>Garlic cloves (optional)<\/li><li>6-7 cups water<\/li><li>Salt to taste&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tadka<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>50-gram ghee\/Vegetable oil&nbsp;<\/li><li>4 tablespoons Butter<\/li><li>1 tspn fenugreek seed<\/li><li>1\/2 tspn&nbsp; cumin seeds&nbsp;<\/li><li>Ginger garlic paste (40g)<\/li><li>Ginger paste (20g)<\/li><li>Asafoetida powder&nbsp;<\/li><li>Fresh tomato paste&nbsp;<\/li><li>Hot charcoal (optional)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Garnishing<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Half a cup cream&nbsp;<\/li><li>Red chilli powder&nbsp;<\/li><li>100-gram butter&nbsp;<\/li><li>One lemon&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Preparation<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.filestackcontent.com\/XKa4JPsCQDaL0R3jvRaM\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"600\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>To make dal makhani Oberoi style, start by taking whole black lentils, kidney beans, and chickpeas and pouring them in a bowl of water. Now, add 4 cups of water so as to soak them fully and start to gently rub the lentils using both your hands. By doing this, you can make sure that there aren\u2019t any kind of impurities on the surface. Doing this also helps prohibit the dish from developing a cloudy texture later on. Repeat this process at least 3-4 times for best results.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Note<\/strong>: Be sure to change the water every time you wash the batch so that any impurities don&#8217;t cling back onto the surface. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Now separate the clean dal by pouring out all the remaining water in the bowl and transferring it to a new bowl. Ideally, you should soak this mixture in clean water at room temperature for 6-12 hours (preferably overnight) to get a soft composition.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Now take any boiling container or an electric boiler\/pressure cooker and pour the kidney beans and urad lentils inside. Add lots of water and boil lentils over medium heat for at least an hour. In this case, we have 150 grams of dal, so we add 1 liter of water in order to boil it.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Keep boiling the mixture along with gently filtering out all the impurities which rise up in the form of foam. Do not stir the dal just yet and let it boil uninterrupted.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro tip:<\/strong> Never add salt into the water before you have already boiled your dal. This causes hardening of the surface leading to a stiff and bitter aftertaste.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container\" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"This Dal Makhani recipe is a Oberoi style with creaminess of the lentils. #cooknlearn #dalmakhani\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ln4HnS1XRa4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Add some salt to your boiler after an hour has passed and mix it well. Then, take a hand masher and press down the surface of whatever utensils you are using. Do not stir but only add some force downwards. You need to mash the mixture for at least 20 minutes before adding butter.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>After a while, you should start to see the signature reddish-brown color of dal makhani develop within the boiler.

Once the frying pan is heated sufficiently, add 40 grams of ginger garlic paste and 20 grams of ginger paste onto it, followed by cooking it over low heat till it begins to appear slightly golden in color. Then, add half a tablespoon of salt and saut\u00e9 the garlic paste.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pro tip: <\/strong>The amount of tomato pur\u00e9e and butter you will need is always exactly half the volume of dal you have taken, which in our case is 150 grams.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container\" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Makhani Dal Recipe Oberoi Hotel | Easy Daal Makhani Recipe | Dal Makhni Banane ka Asan Tarika [RECR]\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ssPozuMl01E?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Now, add the red chilli powder paste you prepared with water along with some tomato pur\u00e9e in the frying pan.
