Generally 'urad' dal is used in making makhni and then cream. Thus, makes it difficult to digest, here both are replaced to get equally good (in fact a better) nice and creamy dal effect.
Ingredients: Masoor dal with chilka (whole dal) 250gms
Masala: Garlic-ginger paste, tomato 3, asafoetida (hingh), garam masala, oil for cooking and salt to taste
Secret Ingredient: Milk powder - two table spoons
Method:
1. Soak dal in warm water for half an hour and pressure cook. Masoor dal is easier to digest.

3. To this add the dal
4. Once it starts boiling add two table spoons of milk powder and see how dal transforms to creamy texture.
