Toss in the mustard seeds and wait roughly 15 seconds, until they crackle and pop.3 Step 3: Add the urad dal and chana dal and fry for about 1 minute until light golden. Add the curry leaves, dried chili and asafoetida and stir for 15 to 20 seconds.4 Step 4: Add the ginger, green chilies and onion (if using) and sauté 2 to 3 minutes until the onion is translucent.5 Step 5: Add the diced vegetables, if using, and cook 2 to 3 minutes until slightly softened.
