amti recipe | maharashtrian amti dal recipe | toor dal amti with step by step photo and video recipe. basically a traditional maharashtrian style dal recipe prepared with toor dal / pigeon pea lentil. the recipe follows the conventional dal recipe, but has its own uniqueness. in other words the combination of sweet, sour, spice and tangy taste makes it unique and specific to marathi cuisine.
there are several ways the amti dal recipe is prepared within maharashtra. the variation is mainly with the ingredients added to amti recipe. in some part of western india, amti dal is prepared with tamarind as an alternate to kokum. there would be difference with the flavour but has the same effect. also, some may add sugar instead of jaggery but i would heavily recommend and stick to jaggery or palm sugar. in addition the coastal marathi cuisine may add freshly grated coconut to the toor dal amti recipe. even i have added but if you do not prefer you can easily skip it.
furthermore some easy tips and variations for a perfect and healthy amti recipe. firstly, pressure cook the toor dal well and whisk smooth. also adjust the amount of goda masala to your taste buds. lastly, use fresh homemade ghee to prepare this dal as it takes amti dal to new dimension.
