Yes our all time favourite recipe and shaan of all punjabi's Daal Makhani :)

Ingredients:

• 1 cup - Black Lentils (kaali sabut daal)

• Butter for serving

Method:

• Soak the daals (lentils and kidney beans) for atleast 2 hours
• Wash it and pressure cook it along with salt and 1 tea spoon of ghee + 2 cups of water for 3 whistles. (water should not be less and daal should be properly covered)
• Meanwhile the daal is being pressure cooked, we'll make other preparations,
• Chop onion and make tomato puree (although chopped tomatoes will also do)
• Take a pan and put ghee in it.
• Crackle cumin seeds
• Add Onions, ginger+garlic+chilly paste
