notes
Making arhar dal fry in a pot:
  1. rinse and soak the lentils for an hour. drain and add them to a pot. 
  2. add 4 to 5 cups water, onion, turmeric and ginger. 
  3. add a few drops of oil as this reduces the frothing in the lentils. 
  4. stir and cover and cook the lentils. 
  5. bring to a boil and then simmer till the lentils are cooked really well. if too much water has evaporated, then add some more hot water and continue to cooking.
