I am sorry but this is not correct. I'm Indo-fijian and we don't use soy sauce, celery or many of the ingredients mentioned in this recipe. Actually the recipe for daal is much simpler and we don't need to use a food processor.
Here is the real recipe:
DHAL SOUP (Soup from a dhal! )
Ingredients
1 cup dahl 1 tsp. curry powder
2 cloves garlic 2 small chilies (optional)
1 small onion 2-3 curry leaves
1 tsp. curry powder 1 tsp. sarso
1 tsp. jeeri ghee or oil
Soak the dhal in water overnight. Heat approximately 2 tbsp. of ghee or oil in a pot.
Add sarso and jeeri until they pop, then add onion and curry leaves. Fry until soft. Pound garlic and chili leaves together, add. Once the onion mixture is soft and light brown, add curry powder. Add the dhal. Boil the dhal in four cups water until soft (l hour, when most of the water is gone). Add salt to taste and voila.
Hope this helps.
