This post is a sequel to my previous OPOS Tadka recipe. An extremely handy pantry addition, it has saved me countless minutes in my cooking and cleaning process. While the previous was a basic tadka, this one has additional dals (lentils) added, that is perfect for many South Indian dishes like Kootus, Upma, Kulambu/Kuzhambu etc. I can see that you are sceptic. I was one as well. But if you are into cooking 2-3 meals a day and like a good hearty tadka on your dishes, then this a definite try. And if you are not cooking that many times a day, do consider giving OPOS recipes a chance.
My last few posts might seem like an OPOS PR pitch. We are being sold something or the other every single second of our waking hours, so I understand if you are having marketing fatigue. But don’t see this as another sales gimmick. I do not benefit anything except possibly a comment from you saying something to the effect of “Oh, I finished my entire cooking in 10minutes” or “This dish tasted even better than usual!”, or “My diabetic so and so benefitted so much from wholesome cooking“…yada yada..You get the picture.
Anyway, coming back to this post. I make plain as well this lentil tadka in batches and store them in my fridge. My last batch lasted me for almost 2 months in my fridge. This is a South Indian tadka/tempering basically used to temper the regional dishes. You can use your own variations according to your cooking style. Just make sure not to extend the cooking time to more than 5 minutes to avoid burning. (...)
