Steps:
- Put oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; when it is hot, add onion and cook until soft, about 10 minutes; set aside.
- Meanwhile, combine the lentils, ginger, garlic, mustard seeds, cloves, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a saucepan. Add water to cover by about 1 inch, and bring to a boil. Adjust heat so mixture bubbles gently, and cook, stirring occasionally and adding water if necessary, until lentils are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Sprinkle with salt and more pepper and keep cooking to desired tenderness. Lentils should be saucy but not soupy.
- Remove cloves from pan and add reserved sauteed onion. Stir in butter if you are using it. Taste and adjust seasoning, then garnish with cilantro and serve.
MASOOR DAL (SPICED RED LENTILS)
What I have come to understand is that how food looks as you prepare it can make as much difference to the cook as it does, on the plate, to the person who gets to eat it. When the skies are drab and life feels a little gray, I am absurdly cheered by the fresh brightness of a vibrantly orange dal, a red lentil stew spiced with turmeric, chili and ginger, and colored with sweet potatoes and tomatoes. Just seeing that mixture in the pan lifts my spirits. It helps that a dal is simple to make: a bit of chopping and the stew all but cooks itself. And it can be made in advance and then reheated, always a bonus. This dal makes a wonderful, exuberant partner to broiled salmon, but I love it without meat, too, when I partner it with my "bright rice."

Steps:
- In a large saucepan over medium-low heat, heat oil, and sauté onion until softened. Add sweet potato, and sauté for about 5 minutes. Add minced ginger and garlic; stir, and reduce heat to low.
- Finely dice chili, keeping seeds if you wish to add more heat. Add chili, lentils, coriander, cumin, turmeric and ground ginger to pan. Stir until lentils are well coated with oil. Add tomatoes and 4 cups water. Raise heat to bring to a boil, then reduce heat until mixture is at a fast simmer. Cook uncovered until lentils and potatoes are soft, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes.
- Season to taste with salt, and continue to simmer until mixture has thickened, about 10 minutes. Whisk dal to amalgamate lentils and sweet potatoes. If dal is too soupy, increase heat and cook for a little longer.
- To serve, place dal in a serving bowl and sprinkle with chopped cilantro. If desired, shave thin strips of fresh coconut on top. Serve hot.

DAL ADAS (SPICY RED LENTIL TAMARIND SOUP)
As with all culinary traditions, southern Iranian cuisine has been influenced by the cooking of neighboring regions. Spicy and warming, dal adas is a popular southern Iranian red lentil soup or stew reminiscent of Indian masoor dal. It bursts with flavor from plenty of garlic and spices, and tickles with heat from ground cayenne. The dish is brightened with tamarind, an ingredient commonly used in the south of Iran to add the requisite Iranian tang to dishes. For ease, use tamarind concentrate, which can be found at most Middle Eastern, Asian and Latin markets, plus many supermarkets. Dal adas can be served as a soup, as done here, with a side of flatbread. If you prefer to serve it as a stew over rice, reduce the water amount by about one cup.

Steps:
- In a large pot, heat the ghee or oil over medium-high. Add the onion, reduce the heat to medium and cook the onion, stirring occasionally, until golden and a little browned around the edges, 10 to 12 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low, add the garlic, ginger and cilantro stems. Add a little more ghee or oil if your pot seems dry. Season with a pinch of salt and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Stir in the cumin, turmeric and cayenne and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook in the oil to take off its raw edge and deepen its color, stirring frequently and taking care not to burn the paste, about 1 minute.
- Add the lentils and stir to combine. Add 8 cups of water and season with salt (about 1½ tablespoons) and black pepper to taste. Partially cover, raise the heat to high and bring to a boil. Cover completely, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally to make sure nothing sticks to the bottom of the pot, until the lentils soften, about 15 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to low and stir in the cinnamon. Add the tamarind paste or lime juice, 1 tablespoon at a time, tasting as you go to ensure it hits just the right bright and tangy notes to balance the heat. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, then cover and simmer for 10 minutes more, until all the flavors meld.
- Garnish with the reserved cilantro leaves and serve with flatbread or rice, if desired.

- In a large saute' pan, add the coconut oil and heat until shimmering. Add the onions and saute' on medium heat for about 3 minutes, or just until slightly softened. Stir in the cumin, red pepper flakes (or chili) if using, garlic and ginger. Reduce heat to medium low and stir, cooking for 2-3 minutes or until the raw smell of garlic and ginger is gone. The garlic and ginger will begin to stick to the pan.
- Stir in the red curry paste to coat the onions - about 1 minute. To the onion/spice mixture, pour in the water and stir in the lentils, breaking up any lentils that may have stuck together from rinsing. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to low, put a lid on the pan and cook gently for about 10 minutes or until the lentils are soft.Remove lid and simmer for an about 4-6 minutes. Add the salt. The spicy lentils will begin to thicken as they cook further. Remove the pan from heat and let set about 3-5 minutes, with the lid on, slightly ajar. The mixture will continue to thicken as it sets. Depending on the consistency you prefer, share while still a little loose or serve the spicy lentils after they thicken a bit. A splash of water will loosen things up a bit if the lentils dry out too far. Add a squeeze of lime and stir.
- Heat coconut oil in a small sauce pan and heat until shimmering. Add cumin (seeds or ground), garlic and chili powder. Cook on med-high heat for just about a minute, stirring or until the garlic is just golden. Remove from heat and quickly spoon the tempering over the lentils and stir it in OR after spooning the lentils into individual bowls, dollop the tempering over the top of the lentils.
- Spoon the spicy red lentils over rice and garnish with lime, cilantro and green chilis. Naan is also fabulous with this recipe!
