Meanwhile pressure cook the pigeon pea lentils for 4 whistles in medium flame. Do not overcook, let the lentils be soft not mushy. When the pressure subsides naturally, heat a pan with all the seasoning ingredients added. As the mustard seeds sizzle, add crushed garlic and onion.

Serve dill leaves stirfry, the best side dish with jolada rotti and chapati.
Notes
-
The lentils shouldn’t be overcooked which ruin the taste of stirfry.
-
You can skip garlic cloves but I recommend as it gives nice flavor.

If you are spice lover, increase green chillies or add some red chilly powder.
