Methi dal

One of my fave dishes and is very easy to make ! 
Ingredients :
Moong dal : 1 cup
Methi leaves : 1 bunch ( washed and chopped finely, can use stem too if render)
Green chillies : 4. -5 as per taste , chopped finely
Tomato : one medium chopped fine
Garlic : 6-8 pods chopped
Oil for seasoning and to fry methi leaves
Salt to taste
Lime juice :  1tsp
Haldi : 1/2 tsp

Wash the dal and keep aside
In a pressure pan take around 2 tsp ofoil  and when hot add the finely chopped methi leaves and fry for two to three minutes.
Then add the green chillies and fry for a minute.
Then add the dal and tomato and add around two to three cups of water.
Add haldi, salt and cover and cook . ( if pan switchboff before the whistle comes )
When pressure falls , open check seasoning and make it to desired consistency, can add lime juice now. Gove a boil and swirch off, then give a tadka of garlic and serve hot!
