The best dal I've made

Yesterday I made the best dal I've ever made, and that's saying a lot because I make good dals. They're fancy, they're rich and they're thick. And yesterday I outdid myself. Used the pre-soaked moong beans, and dal makhani spices, but I didn't have cream of any sort! So what did I do? I blended up some cashews and pistachios with water, and put those in there! Some bayleaves, a bit of sour kombucha vinegar, msg, chilli pepper, salt, and evoo later, we ended up with a thick creamy rich dal that's been getting better the more it sits in the fridge.

I did something else that was wild, which I'm proud of. Made two pressure cooker dishes in one go, using two different cookers. That way, I could probably cook two pressure cooked dishes, two pans or pot dishes, one rice cooker dish, and one air-fryer dish, meaning I could easily do six items plus an achaar in one batch, without needing to wait for the previous batch to finish. That opens so. many. possibilities!
